Daily Tech News 15 November 2025
Top Story
- There is no hope. There are also no socks. (Apple Insider)
That Apple sock? The thing they called the "iPhone Pocket" even though it is neither an iPhone nor a pocket? That thing that costs less than a dollar to make and they are charging $230 for?
You can't buy one.
Because it has already sold out.
- Half of American households still have cable TV. (Business Inside)
The surprising number is the reverse of what the article thinks it is.
Tech News
- It's always lupus: The autoimmune disease lupus - which despite the memes is a real thing - may be triggered by the Epstein-Barr virus. (NBC)
Most people have Epstein-Barr in their systems, making it hard to track this down. It parks in your body and just sits there, menacingly.
The thing is that it infects lymphocytes, and the rate of infected lymphocytes in lupus patients is 25 times higher than in the general population. That doesn't prove a causal effect but it's a hell of a correlation.
- Reviewing the Ubiquiti Mini Flex, a tiny managed 2.5gb Ethernet switch. (Serve the Home)
About $40, which is a good price for a 2.5gb switch, and a very good price for a managed switch. It's Ubiquiti so it's part of their UniFi system and you have to use their software to manage it and not just a web browser, but even without that it's a small, unobtrusive, inexpensive switch that can be powered over PoE or USB-C.
- IBM filed a patent for Euler's continued fraction formula. (LeetArxiv)
I think Leonhard Euler can probably claim prior art, or could have if he hadn't died in 1783.
IBM didn't claim some specific novel application of Euler's work, either; they claimed the formula itself.
Incandescent Moon Interlude
There's a name for this: A Nicoll-Dyson laser. It was proposed in 2005 by James Nicoll for powering spaceships over vast distances. As he points out in the comments on the video - a rare exception to Rule One* - vaporising planets was never its intended purpose, merely a happy accident.
* Don't read the comments.
Transcendent Teal Interlude
In H. P. Lovecraft's The Color Out of Space he wrote about a strange material that emitted a colour that didn't exist anywhere on the electromagnetic spectrum. That sounds wild, but in fact imaginary colours are real - imaginary, but still real - and you're about to see one.
(Maybe. Some people don't report anything special, but it worked for me and it was rather startling.)
Musical Interlude
Disclaimer: Turn the laser around. Please.

I'm up, sorta, and sipping coffee and remembering a strange dream. Roy Rogers was visiting Noo Awlins with Trigger, and I met him at his hotel. Not sure if I worked there or was visiting. He thought the levee at the end of the avenue bordered a flood plain, and I had to tell him, "No, Roy, thats the entire width of the Mississippi River." I asked if I could borrow Trigger to run an errand, and he said yes. So here's your intrepid correspondent, riding Roy's big palomino across the big river bridge on a pedestrian walkway (which does not exist in real life) . . . (cont.)

Good morning, good people. A fine morning to have buttermilk biscuits and sausage gravy, that's been a stranger to our table for some inexplicable reason.
Later on,
older daughter will stop by with a 3lb corned venison roast. One of the tastier ways to eat deer meat ever.
And as usual, may all effort from you result in maximum benefit in all things, with maximum heartburn for the leftwit fungi.

There should be a provision at the USPTO that if a company is caught doing something like this, first that specific patent is revoked on the spot. Second, their right to apply for patents is suspended for five years.

The left has co-opted the observation, "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel," to mean that someone who espouses patriotic sentiments *is* a scoundrel. No. It means that when all other manipulation tricks have failed, the scoundrel resorts to patriotic appeals to his intended victims, or proclaims he is doing whatever he's doing from patriotic motives. Two different things.

Experienced this myself. I think it's the increased blood pressure and blood flow that allows the headache to temporarily abate, but you're right: As soon as the 'festivities' are over, the headache comes back because the cause for it hasn't been dealt with.
Hangovers are due to a lack of hydration. Drink more water and lay down for a while, preferably sleeping if you can.

Her Majesty requested that put together some music on a stick for her to listen to on her drives around this great nation.
She said she also wanted some Broadway stuff on it. No big problem, we have some CDs and I have Amazon Music that I can stream and record. So we get to the "Evita" problem. It turns my stomach to have to include something that has a psychopathic homicidal maniac as a protagonist-commenter.

I liken them to the Michael Douglas movie Falling Down... when I watch that I identify with him at first. When he stands up to the gang members or and the manager at the WhammyBurger place I am right therewith him. It is visceral. But at some point in the movie, you start to realize that he has gone around the bend. This guy has lost it. I always find myself wondering how I identified with guy who is (i see now) obviously nuts. It is fascinating, and I suspect the answer is different for everyone
Posted by: 496
From the previous thread:
I recommend watching The Critical Drinkers video about 'Falling Down'. There are a couple of them he made about it. They are very interesting watches. I disagree on 'nuts'. He was broken by a system he trusted.

Posted by: pookysgirl, officially with a few screws loose at November 14, 2025 10:17 PM (Wt5PA)
I like good Robertson screwdrivers, when paired with quality Robertson screws. A proper Robertson bit is not simply square; it has a taper to it, such that you can wedge a screw firmly onto it, and start the screw one-handed in any position. Torx aspires to that, but does not quite make it.
BTW, a good flat blade screwdriver is not really flat. Seen end-on, the tip should look like this: ()
Only not so extreme. Reason being, a truly flat blade grips the slot only at its corners, while a slightly convex blade grips tangentially on the curve. You get a lot more gripping force, and do less damage to the screw slot.

There is a logic to that. It's just a mountain range, the Caucusus, that 'seperates' Europe from Asia.
If that were truly the case with all the tall mountain ranges around, there should be a lot more 'continents'.
I guess because the land mass of Eurasia is so huge, with such desparate peoples, cultures and histories, they needed to make 2 and draw a division somewhere? Like they did with the The Treaty of Tordesillas (looked it up), splitting The Americas between Portugal and Spain?

Put some wicked trans in it, converter, redid something with the differentials, axles, drive shafts, U-joints, coolant bypass, new king shit trans cooler, fancy differential covers, water pump, and on and on and on. Its in the upper 200K miles, so he figured it was way cheaper than buying some new POS for 80K. Next up is the fuel injectors, they work fine, but costly as all hell to replace.

What is it with the posting in cars deal, anyway?
One crazy woman, with 3 kids, named the salary of $130k, he must have 2 houses and one with six bedrooms so her kids have their own room, 3 cars or something. Then, with her bird hands (and they are real) and 2" fake nails, went into an age limit of 26-35yrs. Yeah, I am sure you'll find someone.
I am glad I missed this vs meeting guys normally. One girl sat in her car weeping that she dates good looking and successful men but feels...drumroll...nothing.
Another had a hissy fit in her car (she did have red hair and probable PMS) wailing and crying that she can't handle dating.
They all seem psycho. I blame Dims as well as social media. I have never recorded myself doing anything. Because it is too weird and I don't like my voice. Much less mentioning to the entire universe that I am crazy.

Well, the surgeon called today - looks like I will be having Liver Resection surgery on or around December 11th. He thinks I will be recovered enough that we should be able to keep our plans to visit family and friends for Christmas.
He also said that I should be able to do the next item on my Bucket List (Year #2 Boogaloo)....
The TiFWs are goin' to Vegas, baby!
I spent most of the day making reservations for air travel, hotel/resort (The Venetian), 3 concerts (Chicago, Barry Manilow, and The Eagles), and the Wizard of Oz at The Sphere. There are 2 other shows to schedule, but I am not sure what order I want to see them in. One is a magician, and the other one is Dita von Teese.
We are going high-end all the way, 'cuz this will be the only time we go to Vegas. It's gonna be wild!
Now to convince hubby to go see George Strait in Lubbock in April....

I also just watched Critical Drinker's long video on Falling Down. It too was excellent.
And if you watch the cideo to the end, it ties in nicely with the Drehrer piece... insofar as the youth of today may be disaffected, disillusioned, commie-leaning, and withdrawn, but that did not happen in a vacuum. We, as a country, have some big problems to solve. I am starting to think the biggest problem is making sure the youngsters of today have an America where they have a glimmer of hope of prospering.

True. When I was in second grade we made those "hand turkeys" (the ones where you draw around your hand, with the splayed thumb becoming the head and the other fingers becoming the tail feathers). Colored 'em all up nice, added "Happy Thanksgiving" in shaky second-grader printing, and were told to take them home to our moms.
Not one of them made it to the bus without being beheaded.

I liked the one, make up perfect, who whined what a lot of work it was to meet a guy.
I never found it to be hard at all. Granted not many asked me out because I had an aura or something. I should have worn a placket saying "I'm finally ready! Line up!" It only took 20yrs because I did not want to date much in HS and junior college due to being independent as well as possibly weird. I did not date much is my story til I met my future husband. He did not seem to fear me.
Eventually some crossed the great barrier reef and I went out. Still not a huge effort was made by me.
The one weeper acted like it took hours to spackle on her make up (and maybe it did) and dress.
It seems complicated and they will all be past prime and really desperate in 10yrs. Maybe stop whining on film?
I feel sorry for guys having to put up with this. That girl with the button on her necklace? The basic 911 to friends necklace of rape? A great ice breaker with your martini!

It occurred to me this summer just how many old dudes (me included... I admit this to them) are clinging on to jobs "just a little longer" which means there is nowhere for them to go. These are excellent young men. They have no hope of upward movement in the jobs they're in unless some old guy buys the farm.
Meanwhile we have Pelosi, Bernie, Grassley, Schumer, McConnell, etc... running this country into the ground and bankrupting our children's future. I think the next generation will f*ck things up, but it is their future, not mine and not the octogenarians in charge. The old f*ckers need to get out of the way and let the new generation get a feel for the wheel before its too late.

I never had such missteps in the days of my youth. Once I studied just a little bit of history, I learned enough. I haven't somehow mistook a 20-year-old nazi tat that I got, either.
When I was in high school, the anti-war movement was a big deal. Now I was against the war for my own mathematical reasons which aren't important to the story. But the one thing I could not stand was the protesters waving NVA flags. Pissed me the fuck off. Just like the Pali flags do today.

"Charlie Kirk" never existed. It's all a Joo plot to corrupt our precious bodily fluids. Charlie Kirk getting shot was just a "CGI" hologram. Erika Kirk is a Mossad agent.....

Anything I owned by Acura. The damn things don't break. I had small Acura that Mrs B bought with a 5sp stick. She lasted 3 years and said yeah not enough room for shit when she goes food shopping, so it became a spare car and she got a new dodge intrepid with the mobster disposal trunk, a 2000 with the better engine. Meanwhile, I start using the small acura. We had it 17 years. Only did brakes and tires, and 1 battery. Gave it to her niece with 145K on it, and she ran it up to well over 200K with no issues. Mrs B turned the intrepid into a ghost in 4 years, it had 120K because of a 70mile round trip commute to work, going to school at night, ballet, a few trips to texas for guitar shows, etc. We gave it to a friend who ran it up to 210K and then donated it. Mrs b then gets an Acura TL, runs it up to 260K miles. I gave it to a friend, he runs it up to 300K, gives it to his daughter, she runs it up to 307K and gives it away. It still had original suspension, steering, and exhaust. I only did 1 coil pack and a throttle body gasket on it. She now has an Acura RDX. 160K and not a peep out of it.

I'm not kidding. Those damn things just don't break. Mrs B's RDX is a 2017 and it still looks new. The interior is mint, still smells new. It got 160K on it. Now, I have nooo clue about the new ones, but all the ones I had were insane. All I did was keep them serviced and did the brakes and tires when needed.

There's a video of the aftermath of the assassination they're going on about. Candace Owens may have picked up on this.
Anyway, it shows the security guys all around Charlie lying on the ground after he was shot. They're scrambling, and one of them picks up a chair in the way and tosses it aside on top of a table. In the footage, it looks like the legs of the chair pass right through the table.
Therefore, the whole scene was fake, AI generated, they scream.
Turns out it was one of those cantilever type chairs -- if your brain assumes it's a normal chair with back legs, it looks just like it passed through the surface of the table.

The biker, in the righthand lane, started yelling at the driver in the white car, who was in the middle lane. Then the white car responds by pulling into the righthand lane and sideswiping the bike, which then goes all over the place until it wipes out.

Well started with the wax museum behind the wheel doing a somewhat lazy merge into the rider's lane, but they were somewhat far ahead, and on the bike he was riding the brakes will flatten your eyeballs, so all he had to do was slow down a bit and wait to get around them. He moved up to the side of car, lost his shit, started hammering the mirror off the car.

I think part of the problem today is what the media environment rewards.
To give an example: I saw a podcast clip the other day of a former covert CIA agent (Andrew Bustamante) explaining the Middle East (specifically the Saudi vs Iran dynamic). My takeaway is that it's clear this guy has an expert-level understanding of the region, dynamics, and motivations of the different actors. It doesn't mean I agreed with everything he said (I didn't), but he clearly knew what he was talking about.
The very same day, I watched a clip of "comedian" Dave Smith on the Triggernometry podcast talking about the region (& specifically downplaying the perceived threat from Iran to other ME countries), and the only possible takeaway was that this is someone with no understanding of the region or how anyone involved in things about various issues. This is just about me not agreeing with Smith, but him actually knowing nothing about the topic he was commenting on.
Then I look at X, and Bustamante has 39K followers, and Smith has 858K.

Nov 13
NEW: Senator John Fetterman refuses to back down as Katie Couric continuously tries to get him to condemn Charlie Kirk.
Couric: Do you think his body should have been flown on Air Force Two?
Fetterman: I'd say that that was [Trump's/Vance's] choice.
Couric: Did you have any issues now in hindsight over some of the things that Charlie Kirk said? ...
Fetterman: Charlie engaging in debate would never justify what's happened. I just chose not to take the opportunity to argue his views after children lost their father in the most violent public way.
Couric: I think some people might say Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was extreme ... People think his words lead to violence.
Fetterman: I think we agree that we probably didn't agree with much of what he said. But I'm sure we both agree that you shouldn't execute them in public.
It's remarkable when a man gets murdered and idiots like @katiecouric are most worried about condemning his rhetoric.

When I was a kid we did not have running water or flush toilets.
We had an outhouse, trees, and bushes.
When I started school (1st grade. Yep kindergarten was something commies from Europe thought up later) on my first day I was out for recess, had to pee, and found a suitable tree. Two girls approached and informed me that the teachers get really mad if they see you doing that.
They were not shocked just informing me.
Incidentally, that first day the principal sent three kids home and informed their parents that kids were required to wear shoes to school.
It was a different time.

During the Spanish Civil War, Franco gave captured Republican troops two choices: go to the labor camps, or join his army. The deal was simple: if you join army, do your duty and survive the war, your record will be expunged and you will be an honored veteran.
Stay in the camps, and you'll always be watched. Tens of thousands chose the army.

Unlikely. The Reds had a habit of executing 'fascists' and as the war progressed, it was becoming obvious who was going to win.
This was one of the areas where Franco showed his shrewdness - yes, "take no prisoners" increases the terror value, but giving people an easy way out also means they're more willing to quit.
When he conquered northern Spain in 1937, Franco added more troops to his army than he lost.

I think that by the time you get to the current day, the parallels are pretty clear.
Just as the signature aspect of Long Live Death is explaining that Franco was actually a gifted and shrewd commander, Walls of Men's big thing is the "Three Generations Problem," which is that China lacks a military caste, but in times of war, military men emerge.
As soon as the war is over, however, their sons want to be rich and decadent. Thus, the first generation is the conqueror. The second generation is the son who remembers fighting and still kind of likes it. But the third generation has grown up in luxury and comfort, and cares nothing for it. I see no reason to believe that cycle has ended.

Franco was waaay smarter than Mussolini in this respect. He was officially neutral, but made bank selling guns to Hitler. Also accepted Allied bribes of grain.
Mussolini should have done likewise, but he had an ego and figured he'd score some easy wins. Instead he got a lamp post.

Yes, Hollywood romanticized the Spanish Republic, which became even easier, I suppose, after it collapsed. I very highly recommend, as a corrective, Jose Gironella's novel, The Cypresses Believe in God. It strikes me as an accurate and even-handed treatment of the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War.

Hitler gave Franco all of his HE 112 fighters, which lost out to the ME 109. The ME 109 got serious product improvement in Spain, and the Condor Legion used regular rotations of pilots and ground crews to "veteranize" the Luftwaffe. You want to know why they kicked ass so hard in WW II for a service that was only six year old? Spain.
Most of Spain's aircraft came from Italy. A huge amount of Italian artillery was also gifted to Franco.
Stalin sent aircraft that were so badly built that they literally grounded all of them and had to have mechanics fix them because they fell apart during flight. Naturally, this was described as "sabotage."

A single-engine plane augured in next to my mothers' townhouse. I heard it flying over head, and then there was this ominous change of pitch, and it sounded like those WW II films with the dive bombers, and then I saw a wing, the sound of a lawnmower and WHACK!
The whole building shuddered. I ran outside and there was a smell of fuel and a long trail of wreckage parallel to the complex. If the guy had shifted a couple of yards to the west, I might not be here now. He apparently had a heart attack while flying.

There were other aircraft involved. Basically everything that could fly was used, and that goes to Franco's boldness and innovation. Once it became clear that the Navy was immobilized (at the behest of the Republican government, the sailors murdered their officers), Franco actually sealifted troops across the straits.

China's greatest threat is always an internal one. That is still true today. If Xi created a Joint Forces Commander to supervise the conquest of Taiwan, he may just as easily take over the country.
China's military command structure is deeply fractured for that reason, which is a great way to keep your military from having any kind of cohesion.

During the final phase in 2020 of Crook's YouTube commenting, the shooter began interacting with a suspicious user 'Willy_Tepes' who appeared to encourage Crooks to commit political violence.
Carlson claims that Tepes's name is listed on a foreign Antifa website connecting him to the Nordic Resistance Movement - a neo-Nazi group based in Scandinavia which has been designated a terrorist organization by the State Department.

How terrified Trump is of the release. How Republicans are “nervous.”
I wonder if Trump is playing this so the release not only exhonorates him but implicates dozens of democrats and their donors.

I bought the kind, from dexcom that you shoot into your side with a gun and then snap a bluetooth, transmitter to the spike you’ve shot in. You get a little device that shows your levels anytime. It was all too expensive even with insurance but I hate pricking my finger and thus got around it with that. It worked ok. But the high cost is you have to keep replacing the spike sensor. Yanking it out and shooting yourself again and each one is more money. Dr. said my levels are stable and low enough now to not need the monitoring.

Al also came to Demento's retirement party, as he ended his radio/streaming show some weeks back.

I liken them to the Michael Douglas movie Falling Down... when I watch that I identify with him at first. When he stands up to the gang members or and the manager at the WhammyBurger place I am right therewith him. It is visceral. But at some point in the movie, you start to realize that he has gone around the bend. This guy has lost it. I always find myself wondering how I identified with guy who is (i see now) obviously nuts. It is fascinating, and I suspect the answer is different for everyone

Tucker has given a platform for people who have deeply different views of the world than you, and threaten your world view.
The hardest thing it the world is to say, "if this is remotely true, what does this say about the world, and what does it say about me and my place within the world?"

Leftwing Biden Judge Orders the Release of 600 Chicago-Area Criminal Illegal Aliens
A federal judge appointed by Joe Biden has ordered more than 600 illegal aliens released from custody after a sweeping immigration crackdown across Illinois -- a decision already igniting backlash as another example of the legal system bending over backward for people who broke the law to be here. U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Cummings sided with activists from the National Immigrant Justice Center and the ACLU, who argued that Immigration and Customs Enforcement overstepped during "Operation Midway Blitz," the Trump-era enforcement surge that led to more than 3,000 arrests between June and October. The sweep focused on migrants protected by Chicago's sprawling sanctuary network, which continues to shield illegal entrants despite mounting crime concerns. Cummings' order grants bond to roughly 615 detainees. Even the activists who pushed for the ruling admit the process is chaotic and unclear. "They're all being awarded bond for 615, but how is that process going to happen?" NIJC attorney Mark Fleming said Wednesday, adding that many of those set to be released "are probably all over the country" already.More from Breitbart's Warner Todd Huston:
As you probably know, left-wing activists in the government -- of course including "community organizer" Barack Hussein Obama -- encourage "outside" left-wing groups to sue the government and then settle, granting the left-wing groups all that they desire. They do this to avoid changing the law legislatively, which they do not have the popular mandate to do. So instead they have created this fraudulent "sue and settle" system, to effectively create laws with no legislators and no signature by the president. There may be 3,000 total illegals this DEI Biden judge will end up releasing.
U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Cummings claims he intends to provide "equitable relief" by ordering the Department of Homeland Security to release any criminal already on ankle monitors or other court-ordered monitoring programs, WLS-TV reported. Pro-migrant activists claim that ICE and DHS are violating a so-called "Consent Decree" that limits how agents can make warrantless arrests of criminal illegal migrants. The decree was signed in 2022 when President Joe Biden's deputies agreed to accept curbs drafted by the ACLU. Judges allow consent decrees to bind future administrations.
Border Patrol official Gregory Bovino: We're going to go even harder. If you release these 650, we're going to arrest 1,650 in response.
TIME TO ARREST THESE JUDGES... THIS IS A CRIME...

"The President has thus determined that certain agricultural products shall no longer be subject to the reciprocal tariffs. Some of these products include:

cocoa and spices;
bananas, oranges, and tomatoes;
beef; and
additional fertilizers"

Point of order every single one of these criminal illegals have had a deportation order signed and issued by a judge. That is legally the exact same thing as an arrest warrant. Consent decree or not they have all been ordered by a judge to be deported.

I think the way I'd look at that is to think of a total number of shots N, and those shots are somehow distributed as better and worse. That is N1 = a*N, and N2 = b*N.
So
P_surv = [(1-p1)^a * (1 -p2)^b]^N
And then I'd equate the term inside the brackets as some aggregate survival prob, (1 - p_a) = (1-p1)^a*(1-p2)^b.
The thus "aggregate" kill prob would be p_a.

There was a later episode of Enterprise where they had fun with how Red Alert came about. The ships tactical officer was a Lt. Reid. Now, Reid came up with the bright idea of some quick command the captain could give that would initiate quick and standard procedures to bring all defense and weapons systems online quickly. One order than would put the ship in a state of tactical readiness.
They called it a "Reid Alert" informally. And then they got to thinking, we need some other name for your Reid Alert thing, something that would convey the meaning better....

It can handle an 80-120 head strong comoany of airborne infantry. So without the combat gear, maybe as many as 160? As someone posted above, it would cube out before weight out. I used to plan a load at 15,000 pounds as that was the average peacetime load out weight for the fleet.

Maybe, it's beeen yeears since i did that kind of work
Here's what I remember:
C-5 = 175,000
C-141 = 80,000 (older ones were down to ~40,000)
C-130 = 15,000
It was to not over stress the airframe during peacetime so they could still handle the wartime loadrates:
C-5 = 235,000
C-141 = 120,000 (there were only four of those left when the C-17s began LRIP)
C-130 = 27,000
The C-5 i took my Patriot battery to Riyahd in was loaded out at 225,000. We took off with enough fuel to climb out, then hooked up to a kc-135 for a fillup. Three in flight fillups later we landed in Wiesbaden for an air crew change, then did the same thing again with another two in flight refuelings before a combat spiral landing in Riyahd. We were so heavy, the air crew only let us send six troops along to unload it at the other end.

I've said for a long time now that we should disallow (except while specifically engaged in actually legislating in chambers) any added security for any government official. If a general police presence isn't good enough for them, then they'll have to defend themselves just like we common folk. And, no, they do NOT get any exemptions from anti-2A laws they might have passed or perpetuated.

Article I judges have authority over immigration issues. Cummings is an Article III judge - they have NO SAY in immigration cases whatsoever.
The whole thing is preposterous.
There are different flavors of judges, and their preview is restricted and regulated. The question for cummings should be, under what possible authority does make this ruling? The people he is ruling in favor of aren't even U.S. citizens.
It's like a house member trying to cast a vote in the Senate - he has no more say than you or I might have.

The Week In Woke
Oh dear: The last employer I would have expected to issue a "Return to Office" order to its "workers" has just done so.
The DNC says that all of its Shiftless Layabouts and otherwise-unemployable Antifa Shock Troopers on its payroll must return to actual work, and, get this, the Shiftless Layabouts and Antifa soldiers don't like it one bit.Thumbs-down emojis? Oh dear, this is more serious than I thought.
DNC Staffers Seethe at Full-Time Return to Office: 'A Flurry of Thumbs-Down Emojis and Other Online Expressions of Discontent'
Years after the COVID-19 pandemic ended, Democratic National Committee chairman Ken Martin on Wednesday ordered staffers to work in-person at the office, prompting anger from employees and accusations from the committee's union that the decision is "callous" and "shocking." Immediately after "Martin explained that a full-time return to the office was necessary to ensure that information wasn't being siloed and that staff members would not miss out on time-sensitive decisions," employees began complaining, with remote workers sending "a flurry of thumbs-down emojis and other online expressions of discontent" on Zoom, the New York Times reported. Martin suggested that staff members who dislike the policy "should consider finding another job elsewhere," describing the move as a "'Band-Aid' that was overdue in being ripped off." By the end of the day, the DNC employees' union, SEIU Local 500, blasted the decision, writing that "it was shocking to see the D.N.C. chair disregard staff's valid concerns on today's team call."Shock is just outrage with raised eyebrows and an open mouth.
The "conservative" Supreme Court rejected a motion to review the lawless Obergefell case that invented a constitutional right to gay marriage and imposed it on the country without any actual political process.
The Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up a long-shot request that could have given the justices a chance to overturn the landmark decision recognizing same-sex marriage nationwide. ... The Supreme Court did not provide an explanation for rejecting the application. The case was brought by Kim Davis, a former county clerk in Kentucky who refused to issue a gay couple a marriage license in 2015. Her appeal claims that the court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges was "egregiously wrong" and "deeply damaging."That's the clerk who, if I remember right, refused to sign a marriage certificate because it was against her religious beliefs. The left demanded he be forced to abandon those beliefs. They could have just had a judge permit someone else in government to sign it, but that's not what they want. What they want is to make you comply. The Court didn't necessarily reject the opportunity to review Obergefell because they support the decision. It's also possible that they didn't see this case as presenting a challenge to Obergefell "squarely," as they say -- Obergefell might be so ancillary to this woman's lawsuit that they didn't think the challenge was "fairly presented." Courts don't rule on major questions of constitutional law unless they're forced to, or unless they are liberals who really want to slap Trump with injunctions. When I read that a "Texas DA" was letting a repeat child r*pist off with no jailtime, I assumed he was from Austin/Travis County. Yup:
A Texas man accused of repeatedly sexually assaulting a child will avoid prosecution on nine felony counts after striking a plea deal with a George Soros-backed Travis County prosecutor, according to a report. Austin's ABC affiliate KVUE reported that Richard Leigh Bell, 37, was indicted on nine felony charges -- including one count of continuous sexual abuse of a child under 14, six counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child, and two counts of indecency with a child. Those charges were dropped as part of a plea deal that allowed Bell to plead guilty to one count of injury to a child, a third-degree felony. Under the deal, Bell was sentenced to five years of deferred probation. He must register as a sex offender and is barred from contacting the victim, her family or any minors, KVUE reported. The plea included no jail time. Outside the courtroom on Monday, the victim's father told KVUE he was blindsided by the decision and said prosecutors Efrain De La Fuente and Lorraine Garcia failed to include him in discussions about the plea. Richard Leigh Bell, 37, pleaded guilty to a lesser felony after prosecutors dropped nine child sex abuse charges as part of a plea deal. (Rockbridge Regional Jail) "I was outraged to find out that this was not only our first and last plea deal, but this was our deal whether I liked it or not," he said. The father, who was not named to protect the victim's identity, said he had expected a prison sentence for Bell. "I think any parent would expect somebody to rot in jail for doing something like this," he told KVUE. "As time went on, I expected a realistic plea deal to be years at least--long enough to serve some time in prison where you belong if you have successfully carried out pedophilic acts.""Marginalized" and yet insanely entitled and imperious left-wing woman says you MAGA people are "racist" and even "fascist" if you do your job as a citizen and stop one of her cousins from committing a theft.

Unemployable and unf***able goth mutant thinks it's unfair that people have to take tests to get a drivers license and says that's why people drive without licenses. BTW, standard Modern America math skills on this one. Yesterday I mentioned Seattle's new socialist mayor, who vowed she will not "allow" grocery stores to close. Apparently she intends to enslave the owners of grocery stores and force them to work against their will. Here's an update: She only won that race because of a sudden dump of ballots arriving, get this, after the actual election.
Democratic mayoral candidate Katie Wilson, a self-professed socialist, has unseated incumbent Democratic Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell, multiple outlets projected eight days after polls closed. Wilson, an activist who has been widely compared to socialist Democratic New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, received 50.2% of votes compared to Harrell's 49.5%, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) on Wednesday. While Wilson was initially behind in the vote count, late ballot dumps that broke in her favor were enough to put the leftist challenger over the finish line. The sitting mayor led in early returns, prompting DDHQ to initially call the race for him on Nov. 6 -- while there were still about 100,000 votes left to count. DDHQ retracted the call just one day later. King County Elections told the DDHQ website that there were tens of thousands fewer ballots left to count than there actually were. Washington is one of eight states that uses universal mail-in voting. The state does not require voter ID to cast ballots by mail.
Champion of the marginalized Jasmine Ratchet gives huge amounts of her money to charities such as Limos for Peace, the Four Star Hotel Foundation and the Tony Resort Fund. The Tony Resort Fund -- Money for Tony Resorts.
Just this year, Crockett expended $75,000 -- almost $10,000 higher than the average annual U.S. salary -- on luxuries like limos, resorts, and personal security. Fox News obtained Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings detailing Crockett's reckless and lavish spending. Crockett is the congresswoman who is voting against the deal to end the shutdown, who referred to ICE amidst mounting anti-law enforcement violence as "slave patrols," and called a rape/murder victim of an illegal alien a "random dead person." She screamed about Trump's ballroom, called to defund police, and asserted Republicans are restricting healthcare (by which she means no Obamacare for illegals). And like AOC, who wore a pricey "Tax the Rich" dress to a very expensive and exclusive event, Crockett never practices what she preaches. You see, we are not supposed to have law enforcement protection, steady jobs, or reasonable taxes -- she's too busy paying for her security and indulgent lifestyle off our money. Fox found Crockett booked herself luxury hotels and transportation services in cities that included Martha's Vineyard, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, and San Francisco. Notably, the expenses reviewed by Fox do not seem to indicate any significant expenditures in her home district, which includes Dallas. She couldn't even bother to help out a few local businesses with her extravagant spending.In case you missed it, far-left radio host and AWFL White Woman Stephanie Miller made a great and gross spectacle of kissing Jasmine Ratchet's feet.
Altogether, Fox found $25,748.87 for hotels and limos in her campaign spending this year.
At the Free Press, but excerpted at PJ Media: Many "college students" can no longer do the simplest grade-school math.
Students who are not ready for UC San Diego's regular math classes are placed in a remedial class that was created in 2016 and meant to serve about 1 percent of the incoming class. This fall, about 8.5 percent of incoming students wound up in the remedial math class, which focuses on elementary- and middle-school math subjects, according to the report. Another 3.3 percent of the incoming students were placed in a class that covers high-school math topics such as algebra and geometry. ...The saddest and scariest thought I have is the one I have when I hear HB-1 defenders saying we have to import foreign workers, American graduates are simply not equipped for the workforce. The thought I have is: I'm beginning to think they're not lying. Who's responsible for this state of affairs? We may never know the true culprits.
Officials at UC San Diego also blamed grade inflation and the expansion of admissions from 'under-resourced high schools,' writes Nau. Schools are terrified of failing anyone. Not only is it expensive to pay for a student to repeat a grade, but the school opens itself up to legal action from an angry parent. Letting the child slide to the next grade is so much easier. The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often referred to as "The Nation's Report Card," found in 2025 that just 22% of students were proficient in math and 35% were proficient in reading. "The percentage of eighth graders who have 'below basic' reading skills according to NAEP was the largest it has been in the exam's three-decade history -- 33 percent," reported the New York Times.
Math teacher says he was called ‘ideologically violent’ for supporting standardized testing ... While studying at one of the "top" higher education institutions in the U.S., a new author recalls how he was described as "ideologically violent" for arguing in favor of standardized testing. This incident and other concerns about diversity, equity, and inclusion in education inspired him to write a book. His book "Unbalanced: Memoir of an Immigrant Math Teacher," written under the pen name "Yellow Heights," raises concerns about the ideologically-driven focus of higher education. ... Yellow Heights describes himself as a "former climate researcher, software engineer, investment manager, and high school math teacher." He also is a first-generation immigrant from China and father of two. He writes under a penname and requested anonymity due to concerns about political and job discrimination due to his views. "This book recounts his Kafkaesque experiences at education school, where he was labeled a white supremacist simply for asking questions," according to the book's Amazon page.Before the Ohio government banned DEI hirng, Ohio "colleges" went into Berserker Mode hiring DEI dum-dums. Now the schools are positively choked with incompetent know-nothings.
In 2021, at the height of the diversity, equity, and inclusion movement, Ohio State University's then-president Kristina Johnson announced a bold initiative: the university would hire 50 professors whose scholarship addressed "social equity and racial disparities" and seek to recruit "100 underrepresented and BIPOC [black, indigenous, and people of color] hires in all fields of scholarship." Overnight, Ohio's flagship university became one of the country's leading DEI champions. Today, it's still dealing with the consequences. Newly acquired records provide an inside look at the initiative and how it shaped the university's research agenda. In one hiring cycle, 60 percent of new faculty roles in the arts and humanities focused on race, social justice, or diversity. ... Job listings show the extent of Ohio State's commitment to DEI. At about the same time the university sought to hire a scholar of "indigenous knowledges," the anthropology department advertised a position for an archaeologist who emphasized "decolonization, feminist theory, queer theory, critical race theory, and/or Indigenous ontologies." The philosophy department called for a professor of "philosophy of race" to explore the "metaphysics of race" and "epistemological significance of race or racism." Who was recruited for the DEI-focused roles? Other documents list the candidates, revealing hiring practices both overtly ideological and, at times, comical. One of those documents, a search committee's recruitment report, described the finalists for a role as scholar who researches the "intersections of race, science and technology studies (STS), and public health." In the report, the search committee emphasized that diversity, equity, and inclusion would be paramount considerations as it made the new hire. The committee's finalists showed what they had in mind. The report observed that one of those candidates "examines the racialization of fatness and its linkages to histories of health, nation, and empire." Another explores how "NASA's Mars Exploration Program rovers represent 'autonomous colonial laboratories.'" The search committee touted these candidates' progressive bona fides--and their demographic characteristics. One candidate, the committee noted, was "a disabled scholar and queer woman of color." Another "interrogate[s] how fatphobia and ableism are institutionalized in public infrastructure through race science, gender oppression, and legacies of colonialism." That candidate "identifies as 'a first generation, fat, queer scholar of color.'"Again, that terrible thought: What if immigration enthusiasts are telling the truth when they say Americans are just too stupid to work? What if we're already caught in the Idiocracy doom-spiral?
An Outkick reporter tried to cover a Michigan women's vollyball team that is tearing up the competition thanks to a Male Cheater. The reporter was "harassed and stalked" by LOVE IS LOVE transgender extremists. Including the school's principal.
The Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA) on Monday was "still gathering information" about an incident that took place during a girls' high school volleyball match involving an OutKick reporter. OutKick's Dan Zaksheske detailed the harassment he faced while covering Ann Arbor Skyline High School's win over Dexter on Thursday night. Ann Arbor Skyline has had success during the fall season thanks to a transgender athlete who competes on the team. Zaksheske wrote on Thursday night that he was shadowed by Ann Arbor Skyline principal Casey Elmore throughout the game and harassed and stalked by supporters. He called Ann Arbor Police and asked to send an officer just in case. The officer showed up to the match as it was ending. Fox News Digital reached out to Ann Arbor Public Schools for comment. "I really felt like this was a complete and utter failure by both the MHSAA and Ann Arbor Public Schools," Zaksheske told Fox News Digital. "For the principal to watch someone be harassed on her campus, on her property, and to not only allow it to continue, but in some instances almost seem to be encouraging more of it, I don't know how she can justify herself as an educator allowing that kind of thing to go on."The school issued a BS statement claiming it was "gathering facts" about the incident but, get this, they're lying. They haven't even contacted the reporter who was "stalked."
Kimmerly didn't immediately respond to a question about details of the investigation, including whether officials spoke to Zaksheske or other people who were mentioned in the report. Zaksheske said he hasn't been contacted by the MHSAA as part of its inquiry into last week's incident.

Seattle's new mayor, who is even more woke and more communist than the last one, declares she will not "allow" grocery stores to close. I guess she means she intends to reintroduce slavery.
Democratic Seattle Mayor-elect Katie Wilson declared that she will not allow private grocery stores to close in a resurfaced video from September. Wilson said during her mayoral run that corporate grocery chains should not be allowed to only sell food to those who can afford it and expressed support for a "public option," meaning that government-run grocery stores would be established. Her proposal emerged at a time when Democratic New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani had promised to establish government-run grocery stores throughout the city. "Access to affordable, healthy food is a basic right. We cannot allow giant grocery chains to stomp all over our communities, close stores that will leave behind food deserts," Wilson said. "Together, we can build a Seattle where fresh food is for everyone, not just for those who can afford it. Food deserts are not natural, corporations create them when they abandon our communities."
"Food deserts aren’t natural. Stores create them when they leave our community."

Don’t be fooled. Foreign countries, most notably India, have an almost billion dollar industry that specifically groom candidates for the H1b jobs and outsourced jobs. Every major corporation you can think of has outsourced to India including every major US bank and most technology companies. The H1b is part of that process, whereby they come in, takeover a job or sectors with H1b candidates and then eventually try to move that job back into India. When the can’t move a job, they just cycle H1b’s through those jobs. Trump is way off base with this and he’s pissing of the thousands who have lost their jobs. He should instead be building our own pipelines and bypass the failing public schools and universities. Instead he’s doubling down and adding 600,000 Chinese student visas. That’s a complete sellout.

Absolutely. And I'm not blaming the kids. The left didn't work to takeover our schools from top to bottom for no reason. Biden didn't sic his DOJ on parents at PTA meetings because he thought they were terrorists. They did this on purpose.
Our schools have been turned into indoctrination centers that feed kids a steady diet of leftist bullshit instead of the basics us olds got in school. By the time they are through college many of them have a degree and very little practical knowledge.
I don't blame them for being pissed they can't find a job. Also kind of hard to blame an employer for not wanting to employee them and look elsewhere. Business isn't a daycare center and that's where the problem happens.

Sadly, the "debate" is a single variable equation when the reality is far more complex.
It would be tempting to say its K shaped, where there are outstanding developers and a growing group of poor developers.
Startups mostly don't do sponsorships and they attract a culture of entrepreneurial developers who don't have a problem doing 996s. Miracles happen there. (ref Space-X)
Big Corp™ is run by MBAs and their development workforce looks like India, and their products are not innovative and people work 9-5 (maybe). Think Dell, Bank of America, General Motors.
Then there is the small business consulting firms that have a true mix of talent because they do jump starts and reboots.
At the end, its really culture that matters. People who can't do the work usually tap out.

Posted by: publius, Rascally Mr. Miley (w6EFb) at November 14, 2025 05:29 PM
They couldn't do 8th grade math and had to take remedial classes just to catch up with other high school grads.
And that isn't a new thing. Back when I was in recruiting for the Navy in 1990-93 we did basic skills assessment tests on every recruit shipping to Great Lakes for boot camp.
We had to send about 10-15% of every new company intake to remedial skills class when they got there. They went to class everyday for two hours until they could pass all three tests. Some of them were in those classes for their entire 8 week boot camp.

My wife (as is her wont) has been getting nervous about the markets and our retirement nest-egg.
I observed this morning that the tariff inflation is coming through and hurting people and it's making the markets nervous that the fed won't cut rates. But don't worry: Trump is ultimately a populist. He will cut the tariffs.
Didn't think he would do it today though lol

reading a local paper that was commenting on the process of allowing a Kroger grocery store to move into the area. The new store would have to:
provide a second story that would include a competing niche grocery store with a vegan focus and other small retail outlets
not allow trucks larger than bobtails to supply the store
not be able to restock in off hours
enough other bs that ultimately scotched the proposed store altogether

I remember a near present SF story or two where the higher education system was run by the big corporations. We probably need that here.
In the 1960s, General Motors Institute taught engineers via classroom work and factory floor exposure. At then end there were bona fide engineering degrees.
In the Rust Belt, it was common to leave High School and go to the Vocational Technology schools to learn mechanical skills needed by industry and factories - but that happened when companies were viable and a person could have a mono-career with the same company and retire with a pension and gold watch.
What you propose already has been done. The problem was it was successful we got lazy and assumed skills didn't require Time On Tool but could be considered a commodity.

its proposal included three adjacent small homes being purchased and removed to expand on
Two of the residents agreed and had contracts but the third was holding out for more money so the city would not pay. By the time they got the third party to agree the neighborhood decided they did not want the noise associated with sirens.
The elderly occupants of the three homes got trapped in their houses that won't sell because the shtruggle for the expansion was going to continue...

I think it's close to that, but i also need to account for number of shots by effector type. If it's just two shots, that would do.
Kind of like different 40mm anti air crews shooting down kamikazes. The gun is the same, but the crews have differing skill sets. Say maybe six of them get airframe hits, each doing some damage, so the cummulative kill is calculated how-ish?

Labor should appear as a "cost" on corporate tax returns. Shouldn't be hard. Also have a snitch line. Anyone who loses a job because it has been offshored can report to IRS, and if the corp isn't paying the 150% duty, the whistle-blower gets 50% of the fine.

I would take any engineering college grad over any Indian any day. Not even close. Their lack of common sense, no work ethic, language barrier and lack of any drive to learn or get better at all... none of these idiots would have passed a basic interview for an entry level engineering position. Only reason they are employed is because they are cheap labor. And because someone in the company in a position of influence must be Indian and helping their own.
Or, like happens at many companies, the CEO or upper management benefits financially from hiring Indians from certain contract companies.

The BBC Apologizes to Trump for the Stitch-Up but Vows It Will Never Pay Him Compensation
This is from the dodgy state media propaganda mill itself.
So I wouldn't believe any of it.The BBC has apologised to US President Donald Trump for a Panorama episode that spliced parts of his 6 January 2021 speech together, but rejected his demands for compensation. The corporation said the edit had given "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action" and said it would not show the 2024 programme again. Lawyers for Trump have threatened to sue the BBC for $1bn (£ 759m) in damages unless the corporation issues a retraction, apologises and compensates him. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy told BBC Breakfast she was confident the corporation was "gripping this with the seriousness that it demands", adding her role was to ensure "the highest standards are upheld". But she also told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that the BBC's editorial standards and guidelines were "in some cases not robust enough and in other cases not consistently applied", adding that there would need to be people "at a very senior level with a journalistic background".So what was the problem? Too many hard-left liberals at the BBC? Don't be a sap, Jack! The real problem at the BBC is that they allowed conservative-leaning political appointees on the BBC's board.
Political appointments to the corporation's board would be examined in the BBC's charter review, she said in response to a question asking if member Sir Robbie Gibb, a former political adviser to Theresa May, had overstepped his remit and weighed into politics.May was the UK PM and leader of the "Conservative" Party from 2016 to 2019. Her political advisor, presumably, leans right (by British standards, anyway). So that's where the BBC is looking for a problem: There's one slightly conservative man on the board! The problem has nothing to do with the 99% hard-left staffers, "journalists" and editors!
Yes it's just this one dude. Once you get rid of him, you will be officially bias-free. You might say "But the BBC was just responding to a (left-wing) 'journalist's' question." Um, no. The BBC chose to insert this claim into their own story acknowledging their guilt in the matter of the doctored video of Trump. The BBC is trying to suggest that there's no bias at the BBC, but if there is any bias, it's just this one slightly-conservative-leaning dude. I'm sure this will not surprise you but the "European Broadcasting Union" also doctored Trump's remarks in a similar way to doctoring of the BBC.
While this was a matter for the board and its chairman, she said, those appointments "damaged confidence and trust in the BBC's impartiality".

Australian actress Ruby Rose attacked Hollywood megastar Sydney Sweeney, calling her a "cretin" after the recently released film, Christy -- which stars Sweeney -- flopped at the box office. "The original Christy Martin script was incredible. Life changing. I was attached to play Cherry. Everyone had experience with the core material. Most of us were actually gay. It's part of why I stayed in acting. Losing roles happens all the time," a seemingly envious Rose wrote in a Monday Threads post. The Orange Is the New Black actress went on to attack the Euphoria star for the remarks she made in response to Christy's low box office results, in which Sweeney said, in part, "We don't always just make art for numbers, we make it for impact." "For her PR to talk about it flopping and saying SS did it for the 'people.' None of 'the people' want to see someone who hates them, parading around pretending to be us," Rose reacted. "You're a cretin and you ruined the film. Period," Rose said to Sweeney, before asserting that "Christy deserved better." Sweeney -- who stars in Christy, a biopic about lesbian boxer, Christy Martin -- took to Instagram on Monday to say that she is "deeply proud" of the film and "the story we told," sharing several behind-the-scenes photos from the set. In her Instagram caption, Sweeney added that she was "proud to represent someone as strong and resilient as Christy Martin."A female presenter on Sky News Australia pointed out that Ruby Rose's attack on Sweeney for taking the role of a lesbian despite not being a lesbian herself is deeply hypocritical. First, she points out, Ruby Rose isn't lesbian -- she's "non-binary," whatever that means. Maybe she claimed she was "non-binary" so she could play the lesbian character Batwoman. Maybe she was just Gay for Pay-Day. I don't know, but apparently she's not lesbian, so why should she get the role based on that? Second, Batwoman is a Jewish character, and Ruby Rose herself got mobbed on Twitter for not being lesbian and also not being Jewish but stealing the role of Batwoman from whatever lesbian Jewish actress was "owed" it based on identity. Ruby Rose didn't care about that. She took the role. Until she abruptly quit it. But now only lesbians, to which group Ruby Rose does not belong, can play a lesbian boxer. Okay, whatever. Lastly, the low-rated deadeyed diversity hire Abby Phillip says that she has a special mission on The Scott Jennings Show on CNN. (Which is incorrectly called "The Abby Philip Show" in CNN listings.) She says her special mission is to correct all the "misinformation" conservatives believe, because we live in bubbles where we hear nothing but "misinformation" and not the truth that messianic left-wing black women like Abby Phillip have special access to.

On the one hand, it all but admits the speech was spliced together to give "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action." Usually, when you're faced with a lawsuit, you don't want to publicly admit "yea, I did it."
But in many if not most cases, a quick apology and correction will "cleanse" the original defamatory statement, and reduce or eliminate reputational damage. I assume BBC consulted US lawyers and this is the strategy they're going with.

I played 'Batwoman' on demand almost every night. International ratings had to be bonzo.
Also fantastic but no longer on Pluto. 'Tom Swift'. A gay, black billionaire action hero guy. It was a 13 episode steaming pile of crap I miss dearly....

While the editing changed the context to regular people, what they did was remove the bullshit filler plausible deniability word salad and highlight the “dog-whistle” elements that his base listens for and hears. A sort of maga conservative translator.
Trump posts fake provocative AI videos and insists Abrego Garcia is MS13 based off of obviously highly edited photos, yet the BBC apologizes for publishing an edited/clipped version of his actual speeches. Fuck any media that bends the knee to him.

I don't believe Christy Martin was "born that way". In fact, I believe that she was married... to a man. In fact, I believe that during her entire boxing career she was either dating, engaged to, or married to... a man.
She didn't decide she was a lesbian until later. So, unless the movie is about a former boxer who decides she's a lesbian, the lesbian angle is pretty tiny.
Just sayin'.

It's our version of the Jewish apron or the yarmulke that Orthodox Jews wear. There are levels of covenants we make above baptism, in the temple. We promise certain covenants. Symbols of those covenants are sewn into the garments. So when we wear our garments, we are literally wearing our covenants every day, and making the literal action of putting on our covenants.
From a practical level, they are so thin and light they feel like you're wearing nothing.

This is a common idea on the left - that whatever crimes or abuses a leftist individual or organization commit, as long as it is for "the greater good" it is ok.
So Bill Clinton raping women? Well, as long as he kept abortion legal he got a pass. Biden and friends fortifying an election? As long as it kept Trump out of office.
And on and on.
Now the funny part of all this is that leftist leaders know they have this freedom and use it to the hilt. And generally the left uses it when they have no need to. Imagine, for example, the left turning its back on Clinton in '98 replacing him with Gore. Not much changes historically. Arguably they win the '00 election since Clinton's corruption was an issue in that election...

It's because they have no legal theory. It's all about somebody moving pieces around freely to "make it right". It's based on the idea that the right person (say, themselves) would just "know what to do" if they had full control of the pieces.
It's why Marxism appeals to them. Because they can't think in terms of hard choices and hard restrictions but a sort of open flow of he dictates of a monarch who "sets things right".

That's the lure of socialism in these muddled minds. Socialism is just the government "making things right". Like fascism, there is no real limit on what government has power over (except another government's turf--which is why it all has to be international!) it just moves around the pieces in the promise that things will be "made right".
To them, making law is something like a "half measure".

Speaking about things that weren't controversial for the whole of human history until 5 minutes ago, how about Timothée Chalamet weighing in -
During his Vogue interview, Timothée Chalamet opened up about watching an unnamed celebrity in an old interview brag about not having kids. They emphasized how much time and freedom that decision afforded them. The actor recalled turning to a friend and reacting with shock: “Like, holy s—. Oh my God. Bleak.” He went on to explain that while he understands that some people cannot or choose not to have children, he personally believes that “procreation is the reason we’re here.”

I think his story is more effective this way. Nobody could miss his point. But if he had named the person or the paper, some viewers might have gone on the defense because of who the writer or paper was, or might have deduced his politics or whatever and introduced those into his story.

My theory of that double-thinking is that they're in a fake-it-til-you-make-it loop.

So, whatever it takes. Eventually it will run on unicorn farts, but for now we'll use these illegal steroids to just get it over the hump, you see.

Why aren't you qualified? Because you aren't a credentialed leftist.

The corporation said the edit had given "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action" and said it would not show the 2024 programme again."
The BBC has a bigger problem now. They may have thought they were only apologizing for the BBC Panorama quote doctoring. Turns out that BBC News Night made the same 'mistake' years earlier. Mike Mulvaney was being interviewed post-J6, and he saw the same doctored clip in real-time during the interview and corrected the hosts on-air. News Night said nothing and didn't apologize or correct the 'error' afterwards.

I'm sure that is literally true. Been seeing cosplay vids, and they have double sticky tape and glue to make it adhere in tough situations.
Back in Roman days women used needle and thread to make their curls and such stay up without modern sprays.

I got there first and ordered a pint of Watney's Red Barrel beer for everyone, so we could all have something nice to drink while I interviewed them.
Well, they all arrived and Ricky Gervais knew, he knew that I'd ordered Watney's Red Barrel and he said, "Oh, oh you glorious bastard! Watney's Red Barrel is my favorite beer. You!" he pointed at me, "You can ask me anything you like."
Then Rudy Rose said, "Fuck! I'm not drinking this piss. I want a Dry Sack Sherry on the rocks with a squeeze of lime."
And Ricky Gervais jumped up out of his chair and said, "Now Love, I will not sit here and listen to you disparaged the Crown Jewel of British Brewing Art."
"Fuck off, Tubby." Ruby Rose said. "And fuck Watney's Red Barrel."
"That enough." said Ricky Gervais and he wrestled Ruby to the ground and sat on her. "You're not getting up till you drink every fucking drop of this delicious pint of Watney's Red Barrel."
"How dare you do this to...to a woman." said Ruby Rose.

The Brussel Sprouts thing is genetic. They've got high concentrations of some compound that some people can taste, while others can't. Others in that family, cabbage, broccoli, etc, also have it but not in the high concentrations.
If you can taste it, it tastes very bitter. I have the gene, and I can taste it. Brussels sprouts are little balls of bitter. Bitter hand grenades. I can get a hint of it with cabbage sometimes, especially the outer leaves.

She Did get an injury, that was Wildly exaggeraged, she STRAINED her back and delayed shooting for like 2 weeks or something, even though she didn't do stunts, and that was the press put out in support of Ruby. The Real reason, that she outright said, is that the show, with it's budget required compressed shooting and she would be exhausted at the end of every day and she just couldn't, you know as strong people do. Strong people don't work through the stress when they are the tentpole of a fucking show, they just quit.
She had no idea that as an actress, as a LEAD actress in a show that had to produce 22 hours of product every year would require a little more effort than showing up for 3 days on a movie set as a very low tier character, so she just quit.
She didn't suffer some body altering injury, she just quit because it was too hard to work long hours for 16 weeks out of a year, while collecting more than a million a year.
In my best year last time I worked in the states (I'm in AU now) was 92K. I logged 4900 hours total in that time, and it wasn't even a FULL year, I would have closed out at more than 5200.

I remember reading some article about these genetic taste variation, and how you can kinda sort of classify people into general categories. Every individual taste is different, but there are broad groups.
And, having the bitter gene implies other things, and it was ringing bells for me on what I like and don't.

"Woman! Ha!" laughed Ricky Gervais. "You're not a woman. My moobs are twice as big as your sad little tits. Those-" he said pointing to Sydney Sweeney's breasts, "Those are a proper set of jumbles."
"Thanks, Ricky." said Sydney Sweeney. "Though I'll pass on the Watney's Red Barrel. Too many calories. I'd like three fingers of bourbon."
Oh you fucking stuck up American bint!!!", said Ricky Gervais.
Just then Michelle Obama and Abby Phillips walked into "The Nauseated Axolotl" and screamed, "Behold the majesty and undeniable power of the Black Woman'sVagina!".
"But, but, love." said Ricky Gervais pointing to Michelle Obama's crotch, "You're clearly packing a twelve inch todger there."
"Maybe thirteen inches. That's quite a johnson you have Missus Obama."

It now takes 10 studios to make a film, where in the past it took one or two. No one wants to be on the hook for an entire $100 million or more.
As a result there's nothing out there but retreads and sequels. And the industry has become hyper-entrenched in its old union ways as well as an utter bubble. It's impossible to really 'break in' anymore as a new talent. It all has to be done outside the system.

That is true. I know of 2 specific ones, I can't recall their technical names, I'm a member of one but not the other.
Cilantro/Coriander is, I THINK the most commonly consumed herb on the planet according to bobby flay, but there are like 2-5% of the population that have an odd tick in their brain that doesn't let them taste it like everyone else, to people like me, cilantro/coriander tastes like soap.
The other one is capsaicin. There are people who have a whole body reaction to it, rather than just the taste stimulus of the "heat" to those people the pain doesn't stop on the tongue or throat or gut, it's their entire body.
so I'm sure that it applies to a lot of other flavors.

I avoided Mexican food for decades because of this. I remember the first two times I had Mexican food at different places and wondered why it rasped like metallic soap. It wasn’t until I had something without cilantro that I discovered I had that enzyme. It’s also why I avoid spinach and a few other things.
Fortunately, I discovered my genetic quirk and was able to remedy it before I met with my ex-X2, as she’s from Tampico….

I think it's less about the communist control for most, though that's the attitude of their leaders, because the people formulating this shit know that they will never live under their own rules. Everyone else, joins in; because, they are joiners, they are losers in reality, they are insecure with themselves and incapable of developing their own persona so they join, and they want to be the cool kids so they join the most absurd shit, and they do it with the power of an zealot who is willing to die on a hill they have never seen.
All of the new left were taught they were the cool kids in their schools, by the news, in their limited friend group who refuse to judge them as long as they follow. So, Go along to get along, and in fact, go along and become superior to everyone else.
Hasan Piker is a great example. He's clearly a dunce, doesn't know what he means, because he has no meaning, he is just repeating the same nonsense he hears the cool kids say, and he does it with the passion

DOJ Wingmen of Trump's Persecutor Jack Smith Shut Down An Investigation Into the Fraudulent Funding for Hillary Clinton's Russiagate Op
It's almost as if they're one big criminal gang.Justice Department leaders later tied to agency special counsel Jack Smith shut down an FBI investigation tied to possible campaign finance violations carried out by Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign when it used cutouts to fund the opposition research firm Fusion GPS and British ex-spy Christopher Steele's anti-Trump dossier, emails released Thursday appear to show. Iowa GOP Sen. Chuck Grassely, said his Judiciary Committee, which made public the messages, describes them as "internal emails" and an "electronic communication" from the FBI "exposing" the "refusal" by DOJ leaders "to open a criminal investigation into potential campaign finance violations committed by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee." Grassley's office said that this potential criminal inquiry by the bureau was shut down "despite FBI agents' demonstration of a fact-pattern showing Clinton and the DNC intentionally concealed payments to inappropriately target then-candidate Donald Trump."As you may remember, Hillary Clinton lied in her FEC filings when she claimed that the money used to pay FusionGPS and Christopher Steele for the fake dossier was used for "legal services." You know, straight-up lying on required federal election disclosures. Wait a tic, isn't that what Trump supposedly did with his Sloppy Daniels "payoff" money...? Well, anyway, the DOJ shut this investigation down. No "intent," I imagine. Just a whoops-whoopsie sitch. Except... wait, Hillary and Marc Elias lied for years, claiming they didn't have anything to do with the dossier. Which would suggest this wasn't a "whoops-whoopsie" sitch at all, but another crime committed in service of a common criminal enterprise. Hm. Now I don't know what to think!
So they nixed an investigation into Hillary Clinton's obvious federal fraud, but couldn't wait to improve a surveillance dragnet and fishing expedition into more than a dozen GOP senators and House members.
Grassley's office pointed out that in 2022 the Federal Election Commission had "fined Clinton and the DNC for disguising campaign expenditures to pay Fusion GPS, a political opposition research firm, to craft the debunked Steele Dossier, which falsely alleged that Trump was colluding with Russia." The Federal Election Commission ruled in 2022 there was "probable cause" to believe Hillary for America and the DNC violated federal laws by "misreporting the purpose of certain disbursements" and fined them. The FEC said the DNC paid $849,407 and the Clinton campaign paid $175,000 to Perkins Coie for what was alleged in a complaint to be "opposition research done by Fusion." The Clinton campaign falsely reported the purpose of all those payments as "legal services" while the DNC reported the purpose of most of those payments as "legal and compliance consulting." ... Perkins Coie was paid more than $12 million between 2016 and 2017 for its work representing Clinton and the DNC. According to Fusion co-founder Glenn Simpson, Fusion was paid $50,000 per month from Perkins Coie. Elias testified it was $60,000 each month. Fusion claimed that it paid Steele $168,000 for his work. Perkins Coie claimed Fusion approached them in March 2016 while knowing that Perkins Coie represented Clinton's campaign. ... Grassley also said Thursday that "the decision to decline the investigation" into the Clinton campaign and the DNC was made by Richard Pilger, then a leader in the DOJ's Public Integrity Section, and by J.P. Cooney, who was working at the time within the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia. Grassley noted that Pilger "was later pivotal in reviewing and approving the opening of Smith's Arctic Frost investigation" while Cooney "served as Smith's Deputy Special Counsel for that investigation."
Related: Paul Sperry wrote this earlier in the week. I've been waiting for more details or an article, but he hasn't published yet. So this is all I have about it for now, but I think it's worth reading:
"These records show the same partisans who rushed to cover for Clinton rabidly pursued Arctic Frost, which was a runaway train aimed directly at President Trump and the Republican political apparatus. I appreciate Attorney General Bondi and FBI Director Patel's efforts to turn over the information I requested, and I'll continue investigating this matter."
Paul SperryWell that doesn't sound like the James Comey I know. Below: A psychiatrist says that some of his patients are experiencing genuine problems in their lives due to Trump derangement. This really should go in The Week in Woke, but that is already stuffed. So enjoy this one early.

AND she lives in New York. AND a lawyer explained that it covered a straight-up violation of election law.
Political campaigns can raise a ton of money, remember Kamala's 1.5 billion in a week? So, the laws say that you can use that money to win a race, but as he explained it, the requirement is that you "leave them as you found them". Which means you cannot use that money to destroy somebody's reputation and livelihood. You cannot use that mound of money to ruin somebody.
Now, if they grifted before the race and you use that money to uncover their graft and that ruined their life, you still "left them as you found them", only you found out a little more about their past.
But the "Steele Dossier" was nothing about how they found Trump, all all about what they wanted to make people think about Trump, and how they wanted the IC to give him a proctology exam.

As always, the bishops are taking the position of "should" not "are" - we should try to be nicer kicking the illegals out, but the illegals themselves are mostly making that impossible. So, it's an ugly situation.
So, the Church is in knots saying governments can enforce borders and people should follow the lawful laws of said government while also saying but if they don't, please be nicer to them. A lot nicer, b/c if you ask nice enough, they'll follow the laws...(and then they don't, and we're back to step 1)...
It's an issue religion should probably be staying out of...but with an American Pope, that's gonna be impossible in the long term. I'm amazed they stayed out 10 months, as is...

I'm all broken up about this. In truth, I think these people were always broken, pathetic pustules of dysfunction and mental illness long before Trump. Trump just gave them a socially-acceptable way to publicly showcase their disorders.

Bingo.
But he's always been, sorta. I think having a production staff at Fox, kind of kept him on a more even keel.
I used to enjoy his show--probably one of the biggest proponents of it on this board. But while I admired his ability to shut opposition down with a barrage of questions they couldn't answer, I did notice that he'd have this or that odd take.
He was able to argue well, but he was never the strictest of logicians. It's kind of like listening to Trump speak, for me.

You think biden weaponized the govt? The next dem will make it 100X more intense than what the drooling retard did. Right now trump is the dude you take with you to help with a bully, but then kicks the bully in the balls and runs away leaving you to face the bully alone. If you don't think it will be open season on his base once he's gone you haven't been paying attention. I'm not sure what can be done, but right now legacy Americans have no protections against the cabal of criminal leftist judges, leftist AGs, and muslims that take over whole cities who view actual Americans as second class citizens.

The catholic church and their various charities were banking about $1,200 per illegal that came across the border. They spent a tenth of that on food, clothing and temporary housing for them before they sent them on their way. The fours years of biden and the wide open border was a huge cash influx for the catholic church.

"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon."
So Catholic (non)Leadership thinks they can.
Guess what happens?
It's like Boromir wanting to use The One Ring for good
"It is a gift, I say; a gift to the foes of Mordor. It is mad not to use it"

AI Overview - James Comey was involved in the Whitewater investigation as the deputy special counsel to the Senate Whitewater Committee in 1996, which looked into the Clintons' involvement in a fraudulent real estate deal. Comey's role at that time was to investigate allegations of obstruction of justice and document destruction related to the scandal. Years later, this previous work on Whitewater and the investigation into Bill Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich was seen as a prelude to his role overseeing the 2016 investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server.
And/or Cato Institute, 2016, Was Hillary Clinton Fired from the Nixon Impeachment Inquiry?

Yup. The current project continues the effort to water down the Catholic church and make it more "open". If the globalists were in charge of the Pope, what would they do differently?
Logical observation makes it hard to escape the conclusion that things are very clearly askew. That is not predictive, but in conjunction with other things, it does give an informed catholic pause. Be ready.

He now has an ICD code that liberal harpies shriek about with TDS.
I never had Barky TDS because I mocked him and Mooch. I do admit to hoping he'd fall down AF1's stairs when he limp-wristed pancerzied down them. As well as some urges to whack off his facial mole with a rusty razor. Otherwise I was totally fine.
Biden? Pure entertainment a word palooza blundering bumblebus.
I never saw either of their mugs on my phone or in my dreams.
I did dream, in 2016, of the grown Trump kids and me looking for a bannister in my grandmother's basement. That was pretty weird, but the closest I've come to dreaming of anyone in politics. Ivanka was very nice. Her brothers looked a bit on edge. We were, in fact, remodeling this entire house and I assume that is where the bannister idea came from and I needed their help.
I dream in color and read. A lotta details. Sometimes I wake exhausted.
On the bright side I have only had one nightmare in my entire life and my husband, bless him, got to witness it as well as be wounded (I scratched his forearm as he tried to wake me up at 0200).

Someone asked if the Mormon underwear is too tight. Trust me that's not the problem. It's comfy. And we just had a bunch of new styles drop in 2025! All the ladies are ecstatic that there are sleeveless garments and slips now.

My wife is the same. She always had canned green beans while growing up. Now when given the choice between fresh and canned, she wants canned.
Posted by: bonhomme
Interesting. I am exactly the opposite. My preferred method is to eat green beans raw. If canned green beans are going to be a side dish, there had better be some interesting spices added to make up for the sogginess.

I dreamed of 4 dead family members this week and don't know what that means. I enjoyed seeing them! I don't remember what we were doing, but a nice visit.
I have never dreamed I was dying, nude or flying. I have dreamed I am late for something. The big stressors are dreaming at work, as a RN, and not finding what I need. Or, a not favorite, still at work and can't find the elevators.
95% of the time I can't remember them.

It's our version of the Jewish apron or the yarmulke that Orthodox Jews wear. There are levels of covenants we make above baptism in the temple. We promise certain covenants. Symbols of those covenants are sewn into the garments. So when we wear our garments, we are literally wearing our covenants every day, and making the literal action of putting on our covenants.
From a practical level, they are so thin and light they feel like you're wearing nothing.
And no chafing.

Oh No! Ladykiller Alec Baldwin and His Wife from Barthelona Are in Marriage Counseling Due to Their Age Difference and Language Barrier But Mostly the Age Difference
Reached for comment, Alec Baldwin was quoted a saying, "Get that f***in' camera out of my face you g***** slippery-assed f****t! I'll stab you in the throat with my keys!"
And then he shot a postman. The Daily Mail, or as I know it, the Daily Mail UK.¡Aye! ¡Dios mio! Yo perdé mi identidád!
Alec Baldwin's wife Hilaria has revealed she and the Hollywood star have therapy to navigate their 26-year age-gap - and admitted she lost part of her identity after their marriage.
¡ Aye! ¡La edad no es solomente un numero!
Speaking on Caroline Stanbury's Uncut And Uncensored podcast, the 41-year-old mother of seven opened up about the challenges of her 13-year marriage to the Rust star, 67. 'I don't believe that age is just a number, at least in our situación,' she said.
'There are certain things where I have to look at him and digo, he has 26 more years of experience. And sometimes that's a flex, and sometimes that means that we need to do un poco therapy. And sometimes, he takes out a gun and wings me in el corathon.'I'm adding back a little of the Spanish sabor she's omitting, and I touched up that last oración.
The former yoga instructor, who was recently voted off this year's Dancing with the Stars, added that while much has been written about her supposedly pushing for a large family, it was in fact Alec who was 'the instigator'.
'Can I tell you, he'd have more,' she said. 'I'm the one who's like, no more, thank you very much. He would have more. He's the second oldest of seis.
Aye no papi, no grathiah. No más, por favor. Tu pinga no es rica.
I think I've seen this pelicula before.
She found it again by watching old videos of Charo. Hoochie coochie!
Hilaria also reflected on the personal toll of becoming 'Alec Baldwin's mujer' - and how she has struggled to define herself outside of his fame. 'I think in many ways, I did lose una parte di my identity when I married Alec,' she confessed.
'That was not only other people talking about me for the first time on a very massive level.... when people hablar - I posted this on my [Instagram] stories, this woman said, you need to be able to really articulate and know what your identity is, because otherwise you're going to just get it from other people because todos el mundo es going to have an opinion.First world/third world problems, am I rite? If only the most pressing problema en mi vida was mi identidád.
... She continued: 'I'm a recovering people pleaser. I want people to be pleased around me. I like people to feel warm and good and happy when they're with me. But when people come and they say these things about me - "You talk funny", "Why do you have so many kids?", "You're married to this guy who's so much older" - I internalize it and think, "oh my god, is there something wrong with me?"'Tengo un doler di mi corathon!!! She knows the English word "internalize" but she struggled to come up with "cucumber."
She's dunking on him, pointing out that she is cuarenta y uno and he is sesenta y siete.
She also revealed that she's now learning to reclaim her sense of self. Hilaria explained: 'I haven't been as clear as I should have been with myself about my identity. But that is the gift that I'm getting now. That's the gift of the lemons that I'm turning into lemonade. 'People can say this or that - I cannot stop them. But I can know myself in a way that hopefully it won't give me that nauseous pit in mi estomago that I've experienced tan mucho tiempos.' ... As for her advice to other couples with significant age gaps, Hilaria said the key is recognizing differences without diminishing either partner. 'I cannot expect him to be 41. He cannot expect me to be 67. But we can unite through our differences,' she said.
'So many times I am 'Alec Baldwin's wife', 'and guest'. And look, in certain things, at a table, I don't care. But when you're in your home, that can't be. I'm not a supporting character - I'm a main character.No Lucy joo cannot sing tonight at the Club Babaloo. No Lucy, ¡ No! She was eliminated by audience vote on Bailar Con Las Estrellas last month. She dressed like Princess Leia, trying to tap into that Guerra de Las Galaxias vibe, and still lost to... Andy Richter? Dressed like, what, a chef from Ratatooie? Dancing with a rat?

I guess Hilaria didn't know Alec was 26 years older when she married him.
I'll bet any amount of money this is bullshit cover for the fact that Hilaria knew she was marrying an abusive anger-monkey shit-monger, but thought at the time the glamor and fame would be worth it. She is now reevaluating that calculus.
Plus, Alec was much more glamorous at the time she married him. Murdering someone has a tendency to dim your light.

I'm sure the money and instant public platform filled in the identity gap. Apparently she wears the pants in that family. If they divorce, the child support payments might break him.
Women ragging on their man in public irks me.
Stephan Curry's wife did the same thing, ragging on him and how she can't have her own career.

Disney Drops Woke ‘Diversity’ and ‘DEI’ From Annual Report: First Time In Years
https://tinyurl.com/59er37wx
Disney is moving towards 'Belonging.' But they may be changing course.
I did turn DisneyChannel back on just to see what the "Wizards Beyond Waverly Place" was like. Cute show. Mostly white cast. They have two other shows "Vampirina" and "Electric Bloom" which is a show about a high school music group partly produced by Diane Warren. I think she did the song for 'Star Trek Enterprise.'
About three years ago, the channel became the BET of children's entertainment. Barely a white person to be found among the main cast. So I moved on to game shows.
The new shows are cute, pretty funny and mainly white casts which is what DisneyChannel was for years. And Nick too. It's almost like trying to appeal to 13% of the population that doesn't give a crap about you may not be a sound business strategy.
I'm sure there's plenty of DEI crap still in the pipeline, but this was surprising.

But hopefully conservatives can create their own stuff and wrestle back the market. There's a huge market for non-woke content.
And Disney and these other providers are losing viewers left and right. In the last three months, half of Canada's children networks have been shut down. So progress.
Companies that produce drag queen content like 'Fay and Fluffy' and stuff like 'Popularity Papers' deserve to die.

Just got off the phone with the surgeon - liver resection surgery is a go!
The earliest date he has available is December 11tth. The surgeon thinks I should be fine to travel by the 20th for Christmas, so we are planning on seeing the girls in Brackettville from the 20th-27th, then swinging by the Houston area to visit with my BFF for a couple of days right after that, then we plan on being back in town in time to see our friends for our annual New Year's Eve get-together.
Apparently, while this will be open abdominal surgery, the recovery will be much easier than 2015 when my intestines were involved.
I probably won't be able to hold grandbabies in my lap, but other than that, he doesn't anticipate any problems.
He wants to do surgery ASAP, so that the cancer doesn't have a chance to grow any bigger.
The date isn't set in stone, but if it isn't the 11th, it will be close to that date.
Love you all! 😊♥️🎄

So now I just invent languages and throw in everything. Plus my southern accent. The only people who understood my French were in Quebec City, and were probably drinking along with me.

Federal "Manhunt" Underway to Capture the Democrat Activist Who Stormed Into Trump Attorney Alina Habba's Office and Wrecked the Place with a Baseball Bat
In this House, we believe in supporting political violence.
Video of Pam Bondi vowing to capture the mainstream Democrat activist below the fold. Very closely related: From JustTheNews, a Virginia Soros prosecutor won't investigate the illegal doxxing and threats on Trump aide Steven Miller's life, and Jim Jordan has opened a probe to find out why.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said Thursday that federal authorities are searching for a man who stormed into the New Jersey office of Acting U.S. Attorney Alina Habba, damaged property, and fled before agents could respond -- the latest unsettling incident in what Bondi warned is a growing wave of politically charged aggression against federal law-enforcement officials. According to Bondi, the suspect showed up Wednesday and "attempted to confront" Habba before tearing through part of her workspace and escaping. Details remain sparse, but the attorney general made clear the incident is being treated as a serious threat. "Thankfully, Alina is ok," Bondi wrote on X. "Any violence or threats of violence against any federal officer will not be tolerated. Period. This is unfortunately becoming a trend as radicals continue to attack law-enforcement agents around the country." ... Habba, who has spent the past year taking on high-profile federal cases and has become a frequent target of left-wing activists online, dismissed the attack as a failed intimidation attempt. "I will not be intimidated by radical lunatics for doing my job," she said in a brief statement Thursday.
Falls Church is heavily Islamic and per Google's dogshit AI, she did receive Soros money:
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan on Thursday notified a Virginia prosecutor that his committee is investigating allegations she ignored threats that were made against White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller. Jordan highlighted allegations that left-wing activist Barbara Wien potentially violated state and federal anti-doxing laws by posting flyers in Arlington, Virginia, last month that depicted Miller's face and address. She has also been accused of attempting to intimidate Miller's wife at their Virginian home. The chairman demanded information from Arlington County and the City of Falls Church prosecutor Parisa Dehghani-Tafti on her handling of the doxing and intimidation case, after the prosecutor allegedly sided with Wien's defense team's request that the judge overseeing the case limit the information state police could share with the FBI.
Parisa Dehghani-Tafti is the Commonwealth's Attorney for Arlington County, and her election received funding from George Soros's political action committee (PAC). Soros's PAC supported her campaign, along with other progressive prosecutors in Virginia, as part of a broader strategy to elect reform-minded prosecutors who favor policies like eliminating cash bail and reducing incarceration rates for certain offenses.To be honest, I wrote in this post that she was a Soros DA before I bothered to check. All of the left-wing DAs in northern Virginia are Soros DAs -- the ones declining to prosecute sexual offenders invading little girls locker rooms, etc.
He has demanded she preserve all correspondence concerinng this case and any email exchanges she's had with the antifa-adjacent "activist" doxxing Steven Miller. Remember, unfortunately, that now that Virginia has elected a Republican-child-murder-crazy DEI dummy as the state's Attorney General, Virginia will be sanctioning Democrat threats and even violence against Republicans.
"Your unmistakably partisan actions suggest that you are willing to not only ignore threats of political violence against those with whom you disagree, but will actively side with those making the threats," Jordan wrote in a letter to Dehghani-Tafti. "The Miller family deserves the same protections afforded to all Americans, particularly when it comes to feeling safe in their own home," he continued. "The appearance that you have allowed your political bias to influence an investigation
involving a senior Trump Administration official gives rise to substantial federal concerns."

A Cape Cod state representative says "justice has been served" after a jury convicted a local man of making threats against the elected Republican lawmaker, which included the statement, "I will not support you or your Trumpism." Rep. Steven Xiarhos, a Barnstable Republican, is thanking Cape & Islands District Attorney Robert J. Galibois and his office for prosecuting James Spence, a 63-year-old Dennis resident set to serve six months in jail. Xiarhos told the Herald that he's "not afraid to do the job I was elected to do. I chose a life of service. But that service should not come with death threats." ...
Xiarhos, a former 40-year veteran of the Yarmouth Police Department, received threats earlier this year, on Feb. 25, in response to a social media post the state representative made that day. "Tell your tyrant to reel it in or the people will burn your house, office and tar and feather you in the streets of Hyannis," Spence told Xiarhos. "I will not support you or your Trumpism. This is a warning of what the people are saying."

Five paragraphs later we see the actual threat:

At least the Boston Herald didn't bury the threat at the end of the article. So that's something.

Something seems off about this. I'm not denying it happened, but why are there no pics of the guy? No videos of his attack? I can't believe there are no surveillance cameras in the USA office. There surely are.
The initial reports (which may not have been accurate) is that the guy had a bat and was not allowed in by security. He then left, returned without the bat, and they let him in. Really? Seriously?

Also to my understanding US Attorney offices are typically in secure locations with metal detectors and cops, or at least security guards. So how he got in, and out, with such apparent ease is really weird. The initial reporting could be wrong, there could be something anomalous about their offices, the security could be total shit, or could even be complicit. It's not like walking into a 7-11.

Agreed. What is wrong with JDV's wife? She's attractive, presentable, stylish, has no skeletons in her closet, and -- unlike many if not most Democrap wives -- she and JDV seem genuinely a couple.
I think the idea is that Usha is Indian and thus all the racist MAGA klansmen nazis will despise her for that reason alone. That's 100% a leftwing op. I know of not a single MAGA supporter -- zero-point-zero -- who has ever said a bad word about her.

We're winding down one of the biggest - possibly the biggest - peacetime migration in American history. There are no more swing states, just "margin of fraud" states. There almost aren't swing counties anymore, either.
The culture has long been pretty polarized. Geography is now reflecting it.

It was easy since the Slovakia part was pretty much all Slovaks and the Czech side was pretty much all Czechs.
That doesn’t exist here. California is 35% Republican. Alabama is 35% Democrat. There’s no easy way to do it.
Not impossible though. With the right incentives and enough time we could migrate those 35% on both sides out to the other side.

Some of the vitriol against JD's family will be thrown from conservatives. Sadly. People are ticked about the corruption in the Visa process for Indians coming here, to skip the line and take jobs. And Usha is Hindu and they don't understand the nuances of that religion.
When I went to the Turning Point USA event in Montana, Vivek filled in for the Charlie Q&A role, and several uncomfortable questions were asked by young conservatives, probably MAGA, on how he could support the TPUSA which has a Christian element to it and be Hindu. Apparently Vivek comes from a branch of Hinduism that is monotheistic. Was interesting to hear him explain his faith. He also reminded them we don't have religious litmus tests. And several of the founding fathers they revere were deists.
The left is angry the dream couple that might be next in the WH, a man from poverty who rose to be VP, and his lovely wife of Indian descent, aren't Democrats. We don't need to friendly fire, and change the convo from the left being intolerant of it. Like calling Usha brainwashed and she needs to blink twice if she needs help.

Yugoslavia might have relatively amicably split between Croats and Serbs. Maybe. They despised each other, sure, but weren't necessarily feral.

The same way it always does.
If you close, the city will expropriate your property without compensation for violation of the law, then your property will either be transferred to a city-owned enterprise or handed to a political crony. It will then be reopened and operate at a subsidized loss while the Party men in charge rake off their take and funnel the rest of the operating budget to other cronies. Prices increase and so do the subsidies, feeding the cycle until the city goes broke.

It is a direct threat of physical violence. This conviction can be used as reference in future prosecutions. A direct threat of physical violence toward another person permits a defensive response.
A person threatened with physical harm should legally be permitted a defensive response. If one says he's going to cut your heart out, the other should be allowed to shoot him.

The Bolshevik answer was to send raiding parties into the countryside to seize grain and livestock wherever it could be found and send everything possible, carriage permitting, to the Communist strongholds for consumption. Anyone objecting to the seizures would be shot on sight and their domiciles destroyed. After a few years of that, collectivization was easy peasy.

CNN: After being denied a meeting with Alina Habba, a person ransacked the New Jersey federal prosecutor’s office building
These events really feel like they are doing them to create a distraction. I’m betting most people don’t know who she is and if they did, really don’t care.
According to the Republican party those are just tourists. Maybe they didn't smear enough shit on her walls.
Fuck cnn. You are collaborating and it is being documented. Did you let the Trump admin just hand you their AI write-up and hit send? This “story” is basically the words “a person” with a quote from Hanna acting like she’s this gigantic victim. This is obvious flood the zone horseshit to distract from the Child Rapist in Chief that your organization has helped destroy our country.
“I will not be intimidated…for doing my job” - I was under the impression that Ms. Hanna didn’t actually have a job with the US Attorney’s office. Is she working the front desk now?

Glenn Beck went through all the signs of an upcoming civil war. And we met almost all. One he mention. The elite need to be backing it. And the elite are indeed backing this violence.
I see no way out of this unless the AG destroys these systems and jails all the supporters. No one has even tracked back who arranged for all the bricks in multiple cities during the summer of 2020.

Odd, I couldn't open the link, although it looked like it went to Reddit. There is a conservativewomen subreddit with lots of her pics. The "womenoftheleft" subreddit is half posts of AOC lol, a couple of Emma Vigeland (my guilty crush) and Rama Duwaji...
And some weird ones like Chelsea Handler in underwear? https://shorturl.at/TfxGO
Or Boston mayor Michelle Wu?
https://shorturl.at/Bd5IR
They're all labeled as NSFW, even though they're normal pictures. Leftists are weird.

Except those places where it is prohibited by law. And have metal detectors and cops to make sure you're disarmed. Of course, police officers to whom your right to defend yourself has been forcibly outsourced have neither the legal duty nor the temperamental inclination to protect you. So it's best to avoid those places if at all possible.

Tom Homan is the example of effective law enforcement.
Illegals fear him. They know when he comes, when he gets them and he will they will suffer the full force of the law. That's why they self deport.
It will be the same with the DOJ. When they fear the DOJ the will practice self restraint and express themselves within the confines of our law. If not they will experience law just as the illegals do.

Everyone talks up Vance, but elections repeatedly show Trump's base doesn't really turn out for other Republicans. I don't know what his special sauce is, but I don’t think Vance, Rubio, or DeSantis have it. That's not to say they can't win, but I don't think they'll pull Trump's unique coalition.
If MTG is saying crazy shit to try and appear as more of an outsider...it's the right general approach, but she's not attacking from the right issues/direction.

For the First Time, the US State Department Designates Antifa a Foreign Terrorist Organization
Before the headline, I want to mention a story I failed to cover when it was still fresh: The Antifa attacks on a TPUSA event at Berkeley.
You can tell a Democrat doesn't control the White House because federal law enforcement is actually investigating the terrorist attack on a peaceful congregation of people.The Department of Justice and FBI are investigating Monday's bloody riots at a Turning Point USA event at UC Berkeley, which authorities said Antifa protesters turned into a war zone. "Antifa is an existential threat to our nation," Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on X Monday afternoon. "The violent riots at UC Berkeley last night are under full investigation by the FBI-led Joint Terrorism Task Force. We will continue to spare no expense unmasking all who commit and orchestrate acts of political violence." The sold-out event at the ultra-liberal Bay Area campus, held two months to the day since TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated, drew scores of keffiyeh-clad demonstrators who lobbed smoke bombs, bottles, and set off fireworks attempting to disrupt the tour stop.One of the terrorists attacking peaceful citizens was a Cultural Enrichment Officer named, of course, Jihad.
A bloodied man in a "Freedom" shirt is detained by police following a scuffle at a "Antifa is breaking through police barricades and threatening our event attendees," TPUSA chief of staff Mikey McCoy wrote on X as the chaos unfolded. ... "Mob assault and thuggish intimidation of attendees exercising their First Amendment rights are unacceptable," the DOJ's assistant attorney general for civil rights, Harmeet Dhillon, wrote in an X post.
A demonstrator named "Jihad" who was at Monday's chaotic protest against Turning Point USA at the University of California-Berkeley was charged with assault and robbery for an incident at the scene, according to cops. Jihad Dphrepaulezz, 25, allegedly snatched a chain necklace from an attendee, sparking a vicious fight that left him and the victim covered in blood -- as "antifa thugs" clashed with Charlie Kirk supporters exactly two months after the TPUSA founder's assassination. The unidentified victim was initially arrested, too, but later released.Of course Berkeley cops arrested the victim of Jihad. You have to be very pro-active about stopping any possible future hypothetical "backlash" against Muslims, even as Muslims are attacking people right now, for real. Harmeet Dhillon sent a letter to Berkeley demanding it preserve all records about the attacks and their response to it, meaning she intends to investigate them and does not want them destroying documents. More: Harmeet Dhillon may be investigating whether Berkeley is continuing the abusive policies towards conservative speakers that she herself sued over as a private attorney.
In a Tuesday morning post on social media, Harmeet Dhillon, a San Francisco attorney who is now the U.S. assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division, said that she sees "several issues of serious concern regarding campus and local security and Antifa's ability to operate with impunity in CA." She said the scene on Monday night at the Cal campus, which featured conservative activists, comedian Rob Schneider and author Frank Turek, was reminiscent of Berkeley in 2017. The Justice Department on Tuesday sent a letter to UC Berkeley saying it plans to investigate the universitys response after violence broke out ahead of a Turning Point USA event on campus one day earlier. Four people were arrested. It appeared as though Dhillon was referencing a lawsuit and settlement her firm reached when her clients, the Berkeley College Republicans, alleged that UC Berkeley placed prohibitive restrictions on when and where events featuring conservative speakers Ann Coulter and David Horowitz could be held. At the time, Cal maintained that the restrictions were set in place due to real security concerns following violent protests that forced the cancellation of Milo Yiannopoulos' speech earlier that year. Cal insisted the rules did not prevent the groups from holding their events. The case was settled in 2018, with an agreement that UC Berkeley would stop charging security fees to students for speaking groups.I wonder if they bother providing security to conservatives when their terrorist Antifa allies announce an intent to violently disrupt their events.
Berkeley released this statement:
That's what they claim -- but do they really arrest Antifa when it attacks people? Or do they take the position that all left-wing mayors do, that when left-wing "protesters" begin to riot and throw molotov cocktails, you must step back to give them "space to destroy"? Hopefully Dhillon will find out. With that background: Antifa -- the organization that doesn't exist -- will soon officially be a foreign terrorist organization.
Breaking: UC Berkeley has released a statement about the violent Antifa mobbing of the TPUSA event on Nov. 10. It says it will conduct an investigation and cooperate with any federal investigations looking into the "outside agitators" who came in prepared for violence: "UC Berkeley condemns all violence and will hold accountable anyone who violates the law or campus regulations. The University is firmly committed to an open and robust marketplace of ideas and to maintaining a campus where people of all beliefs and perspectives can feel safe and respected. There is no place at UC Berkeley for attempts to use violence or intimidation to prevent lawful expression or chill free speech. The University is conducting a full investigation and intends to fully cooperate with and assist any federal investigations and the FBI-led Joint Terrorism Task Force to identify the outside agitators responsible for attempting to disrupt last night's TPUSA event. UC Berkeley will take all appropriate steps to safeguard the right of every member of our community to speak and assemble freely.
The State Department will designate four Antifa-linked groups operating in Europe as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specifically Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) -- putting them among the likes of ISIS, al-Qaeda and Hezbollah -- Fox News Digital has learned. The decision marks the first time the U.S. government has applied foreign terrorist designations to Antifa-linked groups, expanding President Donald Trump's previous domestic terrorism directive to an international scale. The four Antifa-aligned cells active in Europe -- in Germany, Italy and Greece -- are accused of organizing or carrying out bombings, shootings and other politically motivated attacks. The designation requires U.S. financial institutions to freeze assets of FTOs and SDGTs and ban entry of the group's members into the U.S. It allows the U.S. to criminally prosecute those under U.S. jurisdiction who offer material support to FTOs or conspire to offer such support.This is well and good, but I don't see an indication that the American Antifa is being called a terrorist organization, just the four Antifa cells in Europe. This guy suggests that's what's going on but I'm not sure I believe it.
... "The anarchists, Marxists, and violent extremists of Antifa have waged a terror campaign in the United States and across the Western world for decades, carrying out bombings, beatings, shootings, and riots in service of their extreme agenda," said principal deputy spokesperson Tommy Piggot. "The State Department is committed to identifying and dismantling these terror networks that conspire to ruthlessly suppress the will of the people and violently undermine the very foundations of the United States and Western Civilization." Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., who had written to Rubio advocating for the designation, praised the move. "I'm grateful to Secretary Rubio and the Trump administration for working with me on this critical issue -- holding these radical groups who enable, fund and support political violence in the United States and across the world accountable."While the American Antifa cells are patterned after the original terrorist Antifa groups of Europe, I don't believe they share much (if any) funding or leadership, so designating European Antifa groups as terrorist doesn't mean that American cells are now officially terrorist groups. Just like if the State Department declared that specific mafia groups in Italy were terrorist organizations, that would not mean that the American mafia/LCN groups are terrorist. I'm not sure this means as much as it's being sold to mean.
Related: Rubio blasts the Europeans for demanding US-made Tomahawk missiles for Ukraine, while telling us we can't take care of our own hemispheric communist strongman.
Rubio responds to the EU: "You don't get to determine how the US defends its national security!" 🔥

Unless they are going to argue that American Antifa is affiliated with European Antifa, this is my read on it. American Antifa *calls* itself Antifa but there is fairly little intercourse with the wider groups overseas. Is there enough? Who knows. I don't much care if it's merely a technicality, if that technicality works.

I'm more optimistic. For one, I think there is quite a bit of co-funding and co-mingling, especially up the chain where shady Soros-ish billionaires fund everything. I have no doubt that the scumbags funding American Antifag are also funding Euro Antifag, and vice versa. Antifag -- like communism generally -- is an international movement.
For two, I think designating these Euro Antifags as foreign terrorists opens the door to eventually naming American Antifag groups as foreign terrorists -- especially if I'm correct that the money trail implicates them all.

Multicell is the way it is organized with funding washed through lots and lots of intermediaries. This is how AlKaida and IS-IS and MuzzyBro's are organized by the way. Someone has a list of numbers for various cities, and when you need something you give the number a call and make a request.
The trick previously was to unroll the funding and the personnel links.

See my comment above. I also don't think the Antifag groups are legally aligned in any formal way -- they aren't subsidiaries of a larger group, for example -- but they almost certainly share common funding. This is potential critical because if I'm right, then we can shut down the funders of American Antifag by going after them for also funding Euro Antifag.

You invent organisations, then you label as terrorists so you can attribute "membership" to anyone you want shut down or prosecuted.
But Proud Boys and other paramilitary groups who stormed the capitol chanting to hang the vice president gets pardon.
We need a serious way to protest that doesn’t make our cause look like clowns. The inflatable frogs and such are a failure. Another example of the wrong way is the pussy hat protests in 2017, one of the greatest protests in women history but was overshadowed by the embarrassment of taking that serious.
Exactly! Serious, successful examples:
BLM, March for our lives, Jan 6 (before violence), MLK and Malcolm X, America is all abt this. Starbucks just went on strike today, all of these are actual protests, not cos playing like a loser with no job 😂 get real

Two of the co-founders of Rose City antifa, the very active Portland branch, are now living in Sweden.
US antifa is part of the Black Bloc movement that has been active in Europe for decades. They can claim independence all they want but it's not a coincidence that antifa uses the same tactics, has the same goals and even dresses the same as their allies in Europe.

The survivors from the drug boats are being picked up by Mexican and Dutch boats and repatriated, from what I can tell. I do suspect that is because Trump is not up to fighting over whether the drug mules are foreign terrorists, narco-gang members, or foreign combatants, yet.

Private money in large amounts is surveilled, as is purchases of money. The use of, for example, SNAP or WIC benefits washed through the black market as food is only enough for local action, not larger scale rent-a-mobs or weapons.

Right. And didn't Trump already designate Antifa as a domestic terror group? Wasn't that the big press conference months ago with other conservative journo's at a roundtable, when I thought Mike Cernovich(?) specifically asked Trump to look at ALSO designating them a FOREIGN terroist organization, and Trump indicated he'd do that...? And this is now the follow-up to that? I just thought ace was off and they already were designated domestic terrorists, this was the following (more challenging but more punitative) step...?
Posted by: bearski at November 14, 2025 12:26 PM (Bhsk7)
Yeah other than George and Alex Soros having their grasping fingers in both - but then I guess that doesn't pass your test for "much". Both domestic and foreign Antifa share identical goals: CHAOS. Same as ANY Communist terrorist group. Perhaps if domestic Antifa changed their name to "The Peoples Front for Death and Destruction" TPFFDD you couldn't see any link at all. Would you feel better then? Maybe you could tell which way the wind was blowing if they called themselves "The Weathermen". Like Jihadis calling them selves "ISIS" and "Alqaeda" and "Hamas" and "Hezbola", etc. you don't see the link there either.

There have been survivors, President Petro was bitching about "his fishermen" having their boat blowed up and being repatriated.
One of the early videos was the USCG using 50's on it, and there was no crew on that one. (And the USCG needed better targeting too, they were spraying - not that I could do any better I suppose) The Mexican navy has been noted as doing the SAR on the boats and taking in the crew.

Lucky Luciano, then in prison at the time, made a deal with the FBI - no "labor actions" at east coast ports until Germany was defeated, feds would lay off many mob operations. Luciano even volunteered to parachute into Sicily for Operation Husky, but was politely declined. However he instructed his "contacts" back home to support the Allied invasion, which they did, in some cases helping substantially (American troops would approach a town, local mafia connection would brief them on where all the German troops and strongpoints were).
All started when US counter-intelligence couldn't get any traction trying to uncover Axis spies/saboteurs at the ports (suspected to be an issue after a suspicious fire destroyed an ocean liner being reconfigured as a troop ship for the UK - all of this pre-Pearl Harbor). Fortunately, they turned to the mob, who unsurprisingly were well positioned to do the job.

That kind of means nothing, because there really isn't any rules about domestic terror that is not covered by standard laws on the books, and don't need a designation.
It did get the commentariat and the average Joe to think about what terrorism is, and set battlespace for declaring them international terrorism.

Nope. They are well-connected.
IIRC, Data Republican--or maybe it was the Dallas indictments?--show that US Antifa have gotten training from Europe cells.
Specifically noted was their "off-grid" training from a highly-selective Euro group that requires in-person vetting before letting anyone in the group.
So not, "Al Quesada" but they all attend the same Terrorist Summer Camp in the desert.

All browsers on Apple are simply skins over Safari code.
True on Android too with all but Firefox or a few oddities. The difference is Chrome essentially works well enough on Android and somewhat on Windows so that the skins actually work whether it is Brave, Chromium (open source browser of Chrome), Edge, etc.
Major reason I don't use or buy apple products. Safari is a bad and buggy browser design in the first place and has been a laggard for over a decade in design and functionality.

Pope Leo XIV appears to be embracing the cause of transgenderism.
According to left-wing Catholic blogger and activist Christopher Hale, Leo will meet with Italian transgender activist Alessia Nobile and several other campaigners for a luncheon on Sunday.
Posted by: Crusader at November 14, 2025 01:00 PM (TN0g+)
This is silly; the Pope meets with everyone and everybody under the sun. When he meets with conservatives, the less radical traditionalists take it as an endorsement, and when he meets with liberals, the libs likewise spin it as an endorsement, even though both varieties of meeting are utterly perfunctory. The US Bishops' Conference just banned trans surgeries at Catholic hospitals; Leo, with his don't-rock-the-boat approach, is the last man to undercut that.

In international waters there are few, if any, laws. It's why captains at ships at sea can marry couples, and gambling is legal. It's why ships carry transponders and fly flags, so everyone knows who they are. A ship at sea, flying an American flag, is a tiny bit of America. If you attack it, the U.S. Navy can and will respond.
Narco boats fly no flag and have no radio transponder. They are people without a country and declare no allegiance. hence, we can kill them on site. There is no law protecting them. Much like there is no law protecting pirates.

THE MORNING RANT: Uninsured Motorists, Illegal Aliens, and the Soaring Cost of Auto Insurance
There are obviously many inputs into the increased cost of insurance, including the obvious one - an increase in the cost of repairs, because vehicles are more expensive and more complicated than ever before. Most news stories will also lazily throw in tariffs or supply chain problems as contributing reasons. But there is another worsening problem that is a major cause of rising auto insurance premiums, and that is uninsured drivers. Coincidentally, the surge in uninsured drivers over recent years neatly coincides with President Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas throwing the border open wide to millions of illegal aliens. Per the Insurance Research Council’s most recent full year data (2023), there has been a huge increase in the number of uninsured drivers. In 2019, 11.6% of drivers lacked automobile liability insurance, but just four years later in 2023 that number had increased to 15.4% of drivers. Another way to state this is that in 2019, one in nine drivers were uninsured, but in 2023 that number had deteriorated to one in six. This data is sourced from insurance claims where an insured driver had to use his Uninsured Motorist Coverage to make a claim, because the party at fault in the wreck did not have insurance. But this also means that wrecks between two uninsured motorists go unnoticed by the Insurance Research Council (“IRC”
, as do single car wrecks involving uninsured motorists, since they obviously cannot make an insurance claim. It can be extrapolated then that the percent of uninsured drivers is even higher.
Compounding the problem is the growing number of drivers who are underinsured, meaning they have liability insurance at the minimum amount required to register a vehicle and/or obtain a drivers license, but the amount of insurance is woefully insufficient. For instance, Texas’ minimum requirement for liability insurance covers just $25,000 of physical damage per accident, which is less than the replacement cost of most cars on the road, and much less than the average cost of most new cars. In California, the amount is just $15,000.
Per the IRC, in the same four-year span of 2019, the number of underinsured motorists increased from 12.2% of drivers to 18.0%.
In summary, here is the expensive truth:
• More than 33% of accidents involve drivers who are either uninsured or underinsured, meaning they do not have sufficient insurance to pay for the damage they caused. This is up from 23% in just four years.
• Therefore, one in three wrecks require the party not at fault to file a claim against his own insurance company, using his “Uninsured Motorist Coverage.”
• This also means that those of us obeying the law and properly maintaining our insurance are subsidizing uninsured and underinsured drivers.
I have insinuated that the rise in uninsured motorists corresponds closely with the Biden-era influx of illegal aliens. While correlation alone does not prove causation, there is data indicating that the influx of non-citizen drivers has been a major contributor to the rise in uninsured motorists.
In a post of mine from September titled “Tricolor Auto’s Failure Has It All - ESG, Woke Capital, Illegal Immigration, Securities Fraud, Government Diversity Programs, BlackRock, etc” I documented that Tricolor was a company that sold and financed used cars, and its primary market was Spanish-speaking illegal aliens. It was the 7th largest used car dealer in the country, with a huge market presence in California and Texas. Tricolor went spectacularly bankrupt when President Trump’s crackdown on illegal aliens brought sales to a standstill and widespread defaults on loan repayment.
What I didn’t document was Tricolor’s role in putting drivers on the road who weren’t properly insured. The simple truth is that a critical aspect of selling used cars to high-risk drivers is that liability insurance must be obtained to get a vehicle registered, so there is an industry that provides 30-day liability insurance policies to these high-risk drivers. Once the vehicle is registered, it is extremely common for the insurance to lapse after 30 days. The actuarial risk these companies are taking is that the high-risk driver can make it one whole month without causing a wreck before the insurance lapses. Since Tricolor needed its customers insured, albeit briefly, it established its own insurance agency which worked exclusively with “nonstandard” insurance carriers to provide the 30-day policies necessary to sell a car. Per an article from 2019 in Auto Remarketing magazine, “Tricolor Insurance Agency, an affiliate of Tricolor Auto Group, currently serves as an agent for 10 nonstandard carriers and markets its services throughout Tricolor’s 28 dealerships and through its eight Ganas dealerships in southern California.” This article estimated that even in 2019, nonstandard insurance comprised about 30% of the personal auto insurance market. Because the insurance being sold by nonstandard insurers is the bare minimum required to get a vehicle registered, that also effectively means that every driver with nonstandard insurance is “underinsured” until their insurance lapses, at which time they are completely uninsured. This also means that pretty much every customer Tricolor sold a vehicle to did not have sufficient insurance coverage to pay for the wrecks they caused. And for every vehicle Tricolor sold, there were many other vehicles sold to the same customer base by other used car dealers. As bad as this all sounds, it gets even worse. Ace of Spades reader “Sabrecav” educated me on just how unsavory the nonstandard insurance racket is. Although their market is customers who are otherwise uninsurable, if a customer with a nonstandard insurance policy gets into a wreck before his policy lapses, the nonstandard insurers are very aggressive about refusing to pay claims. Sabrecav provided me a link to this story as an example: “Crash victims say 'non-standard' auto insurance companies are not fairly compensating them” [ABC7Chicago – 02/18/2025]Drivers must have insurance in Illinois, and non-standard insurance legally covers those who are a high risk or have a bad credit history. But some people who were hit by drivers with non-standard insurance say they are getting lowballed on claims. Debra Smith has been battling the Chicago-based driver's insurance company American Alliance Casualty. It is a non-standard auto insurer. She says the process was slow and she was offered much less than she thought she would get.The Biden-era open-border policy has been costly and destructive to this country in so many ways. One of those is the cost being borne by those of us who maintain auto insurance, because we are paying for the increase in wrecks caused by uninsured illegal aliens. [buck.throckmorton at protonmail dot com]
"They're saying $1,000. That won't be - that's not even the amount of money to get to replace the stuff," Smith said.
An estimate from her body shop said repairs could be $5,320. And American Alliance Casualty is saying that it will only cover $805 dollars of its own $1,000 estimate because its only accepting 75% of liability.

Supply chain is indeed a real problem and cause. Especially for newer foreign cars, getting replacement parts is hard if not impossible unless you pay inflated prices. Exotics? Fuhgeddaboudit. So the costs of repairs is much higher than they should be. In some cases, the cost would be so high that the insurance company just totals the car and sells off the good parts.
Happened to me a few years ago. The car was repairable, but it would have cost so much that the carrier just cut me a big check.

1. Biden inflation. Everything costs more now. Insurance too.
2. Vast number of utterly terrible drivers on the road. Many are immigrants (legal and illegal) from scumbag cultures who drive like drunken retards. But an awful lot of Americans are terrible too, and some older people no longer have adequate faculties and shouldn't be driving.
3. Huge explosion of delivery drivers, delivery trucks, delivery carts, mopeds, e-bikes, etc. Especially in big cities, there are simply more things on the road to hit.

Part of the problem could be the cost of cars these days. It was either here or Instapundit that someone recently posted as article stating that the average cost of a new one is now somewhere near $50,000. All the technology and modern safety features make cars a lot more expensive than they otherwise have to be. Wouldn't that make the number of underinsured rise (as carrying the amount of insurance needed to cover these pricier cars pushes up the amount of insurance needed and an increasing share of motorists find it difficult to afford the pricier coverage)?

Indiana 2004. A beautiful fall day. Its 9am and I was driving safely. Car crosses center line and barrels toward me. Do something, anything, or it's high speed head on! I swerve left and cram the brakes as the car veers to my right. CRASH! Got hit on the right hand side of the front end. If there had been anyone in the front passenger seat, they most likely would have died. My injuries were mostly minor except for the crushed heel.
Driver was Mexican, legal but stoned. His passengers were illegal, one dead at the scene and the other got a helicopter ride to Indianapolis. They dropped a LifeFlight chopper on the highway about 5 feet from the perimeter of a secure military base! They had to stop in Bloomington to stabilize the guy before going on to Indy. And as soon as he recovered from his amputation, he skedaddled back to Mexico. Driver was underinsured. Took forever to get any money from that shit. My health insurance and car insurance covered most of my medical bills (surgery and4 months recoup). We never really broke even with what little his insurance paid.

Lack of real "no fault" insurenceis to blame.
Here “Uninsured Motorist Coverage.” is an option that cost as much as the basic "no fault" insurence.i
IF I have insurence then it should not matter what the other driver has unless I wanted to sue him for damages and nobody is getting shit from an illegal alien.
Coverage for the vehicle is an option and again it should not matter what the other driver has.

several months ago, my brother's car was totaled by a woman running a red light on the feeder. he had been at his own red light and proceeded into the intersection when it turned green; the woman hit him as he was entering the intersection.
despite a witness statement and a police report suggesting that their insured's "failure to obey traffic signal" was the sole cause of the accident, the company refused to pay out the claim because their insured was adamant that she had a green light and there was no video evidence to contradict her.
that company was Allstate. it is doubtless that the biden-era influx of illegals has exacerbated the problem, but it's far from the root of the issue...we've just turned into a nation of irresponsible liars all looking out for Number One.

Yea, the airbags alone cost a fortune to replace. So a relatively minor accident that deploys airbags ends up totalling the car because the cost of replacing the airbags alone (which means the trim the bags exploded through also needs to be replaced) is sometimes 10s of thousands of dollars.

Another observation owing to the Commies' "Defund The Police" movement that began during the 2020 Summer of Love, Burning, Looting, and Murdering:
I drive 85,000 miles/year for work, mostly on state routes and interstates, and there's been a dramatic decrease in Police, Highway Patrol, and DPS vehicles and personnel on the roads; it's extremely rare anymore to see anybody pulled over (speaking as someone who'd been pulled over a dozen times for speeding before then).
Even in our rural Northern AZ County, the local sheriff and city police departments are still significantly under-staffed -- as who in their right mind would want to go into law enforcement when your Chief and/or DA and/or AG will throw you under the bus, and you might end up in prison for daring to do your job as trained a la Derek Chauvin (and risk being murdered once there to boot)?

I recently had dealings with a body shop after hitting a dear with my Silverado. The body shop was a well known long established shop which I have used previously with great satisfaction. Now I wouldn't let them work on a matchbox car.
They don't do rust repair. Nobody working there knows how, supposedly. Long lead times for parts. The parts they ordered (Fender, headlight, etc.) wouldn't fit and had to re-order. Then, the body shop tech damaged the truck while driving it into a service bay.

James Bowman III was arrested in Waldorf, Maryland, on Nov. 7, 2025, for allegedly punching a woman and biting her hand—then released without bail. Just one hour later, police say he returned to the same home and attacked her again, this time while she held a toddler. The woman locked herself in a bedroom and called 911, but Bowman allegedly forced the door open and continued the assault. His release came with a no-abuse condition, which he allegedly violated almost immediately.

Though this was 2018.
The offending motorist presented a drivers license and insurance card from the NYC area, which is not that uncommon as we have a large number of students from downstate who attend the Univ. at Buffalo.
Only upon a claim being placed, it was found that the insurance card was invalid, and the agency never existed.
My carrier was not able to track down the driver, and the police who took down the accident report were of no help either.

The pro-government people would probably suggest the solution is to have a years worth of insurance, maybe even raising the minimum amounts.
As we saw during the shutdown though, a significant number of people can't afford food. The insurance companies would probably set people up for a year policy with monthly payments.
People would pay for the first month, register the vehicle and then let insurance coverage lapse. I have no idea what the solution could be aside from requiring people to have a years worth of insurance paid before the vehicle could be registered.
And that won't happen.
Since I like to share food prices to let the Horde know what things are like here in Canada, I have a 10 year old Honda with about 80,000 MILES - I did the conversion - and pay about $1300 a year for good coverage.

As I was driving that car home (at dusk) -- after having owned it for no more than 10 minutes, a large deer running across the divided highway (median covered in trees and shrubbery so I didn't see it coming with my usually excellent peripheral vision) crashed into the left front fender.
First time I'd ever hit any animal driving, let alone a deer. The front left tire sounded like it was shredding, so stopped and got out the crowbar to pull the crushed fender back off the tire.
Anywho, the highly-rated local body shop was so busy they couldn't get me in until over a month later -- and I was able to drive the vehicle with no issues.
After they "repaired" it -- it looked brand new -- as I started to drive it out of their lot, it began shaking violently! I took it back and said "What the hell did you do to my car?" and described the issue. They said it was like that when I brought it in -- total bullshit.
They said the last thing they did was take it to Big O Tires down the road for an alignment; well, I was good and proper fucked as they'd cracked a head gasket somehow ... so I had to eat that one.

Thanks. So am I. The impact was so hard that a shitty little sedan knocked my Jeep Cherokee Sport sideways and turned it cross ways of the road. Witnesses said it looked like the Jeep was gonna roll over. Felt like it too. Also felt like my head was stuffed into a giant marshmallow when the airbag deployed. My cellphone started out in the console and wound up stuck in a hole the engine punched thru the front firewall. My sunglasses were never found.
Hubbymayhem was out on the road somewhere in Ohio when my brother called and asked if he was rolling or sitting still. He had just unloaded and wasn't rolling yet. Thing Two started with, "she's alive. She's injured, but will recover". Then gave him the rest.

I know some reckless idiots who had so many points on their license that the state eventually suspended the license. But they had insurance coverage at that time, and again when the suspension period ended.
One quite memorable incident involved a guy with a license that was recently unsuspended who drove an exotic car off a bridge. No way this guy should have been driving at all, let alone a $300k car (which was totaled, of course).

But it’s not $50k which is what the “omg average car is $50k” articles were implying. The average is skewed heavily by $80, 90k pimped out trucks and SUVs.
If you want a basic get me A to B sedan like a Camry or Accord $30kish will buy one. Compact SUVs like a Taos are also in the low $30s.

The 50k figure comes from the fact that almost nobody buys sedans any longer and the primary vehicle is now a pickup truck or mid-size suv.
And very few people are buying base accords, when all is said and done, the average new accord someone is buying is going to be in the 35-45k range.

The whole reason for "underinsurance" comes down to three things:
1. Cars are expensive
2. Medical care is ruinously expensive
3. I'm in the hook for 1 and 2.
But *why* am I on the hook for it? I shouldn't be, and neither should you. I shouldn't have to carry enough insurance to pay for a Mercedes S-Class and six months of hospitalization. I should pay for *me* and vice-versa.
Recast driving as an activity generally to be an assumed-risk activity. Barring recklessness (which is its own category, and for which insurance needn't pay anyway), put *all* liability on the motorist and restrict it to *him* and his passengers. If there's a wreck, even through carelessness or negligence, your fault or not, your insurance pays for your property and care, his pays for his. Or you don't have it. No skin off my back.
In the event of recklessness or another voiding issue, the insurance company is welcome to go after you for liability (or I am, if I self-insure).

Posted by: Elric The Blade at November 14, 2025 11:52 AM (iFTx/)
Well, one of the reasons the cost of insurance has gone up is the propensity of insurers to simply pay a claim, regardless of fault. Mine paid out a claim to someone injured in a rollover (the driver of that vehicle was... you guessed it, uninsured) they claimed I caused (the citation against me was thrown out in court). They didn't think I had any real culpability, but it was easier to simply pay the claim than it was to dispute it.
The other reasons are, as you say, Buck, the expense of cars (some of it because of just how expensive they have become, but the other part is low-impact bumpers and such, that used to be handled by putting just a new bumper on - now handled by replacing a huge portion of the rear end, it seems) and the un- and underinsured motorists. As far as expense, vast numbers of cars are simply totalled after an accident, now.

Which also doesn't matter. You can't get blood from a stone. So he's "underinsured?" You have no recourse. Sure, you can sue him (or your insurance company can), but what will you get for it? Bupkiss.
The only time "underinsurance" presents an actual risk is if you *do* have assets worth defending. If you don't, then insurance doesn't matter at all except for ticking the box to avoid getting arrested. Have adequate insurance? Why bother? It costs more and buys you nothing.

Oddly perceptive of the union on one front, hilariously irrelevant on the other.
Both of the following are true:
1. Labor is expensive
2. Capital is cheap, especially if you're deep-pocketed corporation who can borrow at hilariously low rates
If you artificially make labor expensive, it creates a capital preference for business spending. Insofar as a business *can* shift the ratio to favor capital expenditure, it will.
If you artificially make capital cheap (we do), it *also* creates that same capital preference.
Boosting the price of labor while capital is cheap just ensures less labor will be used. This is also why capital cost repression (low rates) acts the same as a higher minimum wage...
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at November 14, 2025 11:58 AM (6bTRc)
The thing that gets me, though, is that they still sell uninsured motorist policies, which you need because the high cost encourages people to get around the mandate.
As a bonus, the state's attempt to enforce the mandate leads to lots of opportunities for "big brother" to step in, which of course he does.
I guess you could say that I'm not a fan.

This is no-fault insurance. You will get your bills paid for no matter who is at fault. If the other guy is at fault, then you or your insurance company can go after his insurance. This works very well when it comes to property damage.

If our government wasn’t so thoroughly corrupted, the Insurance companies could or would send the host countries the bill for their citizens wreaking havoc in OUR country, and the Feds would make it stick with incentives.

Insurance has the principle of Subordination. They will pay your claims.
Then they turn around and collect from the other guy’s Insurance. Except, he doesn’t have any. Now what?
That’s how “No Fault” and “Uninsured” works. YOU pay for it, one way or another.
Always keep in mind, Insurance companies are so hated - almost as much as Lawyers - without much justification.
The Politicians have ruined Insurance. Good drivers, good people, make for low premiums.
When the State mandates this and that, the costs go up. “You cannot refuse coverage”.
At one time, you could not get coverage if you financed a car. What sort of idiot wouldn’t pay cash for a car, and buys on Credit? Bad Risk. Higher incidence of claims. No thank you!

I recently had dealings with a body shop after hitting a dear with my Silverado. The body shop was a well known long established shop which I have used previously with great satisfaction. Now I wouldn't let them work on a matchbox car.
They don't do rust repair. Nobody working there knows how, supposedly. Long lead times for parts. The parts they ordered (Fender, headlight, etc.) wouldn't fit and had to re-order. Then, the body shop tech damaged the truck while driving it into a service bay.

I believe it. There is a huge labor shortage in auto body repair these days. The old timers who actually know how to repair things are retiring (or their bodies are giving out), and kids aren't getting into vocational programs to learn body repair. If you're a competent, qualified auto body technician, you can write your own paychecks, there's such a shortage of labor out there.

The last time I got pulled over, I didn't have proof of insurance in the vehicle because I was borrowing it from my parents and they had all their proof of vehicle insurance on their phones.
I still had insurance active on my at-the-time defunct vehicle, because the insurance company didn't offer "garaging" insurance.
That the cop didn't give me a ticket for not having proof of insurance leads me to believe that they already have the ability to tell whether a driver has insurance when they run one's ID.

IAL and this is one of my primary hobby horses. Your insurance company sells *Under*insured Motorist Coverage, but they don't really push it because they pay out to you under it. I always encourage everyone to check how much Underinsurance Coverage they have--and it is rarely enough.
I don't do personal injury law but I did have a few such cases when I was a baby lawyer. In one such, my client was partially disabled by the other driver. She was able to recover all of her and her husband's underinsurance, but it was woefully inadequate. Had they had four times and much, she'd have gotten all of it.

Last year, my daughter was smashed by a car making an illegal turn - grace of God she wasn't hurt; car totaled. Other driver did not speak English and did not have insurance. No arrest, nothing. So although she was 100 percent faultless, prices will go up because *my* insurance company had to pay big.

I was reading a paper on the pathogens in remains of soldiers who were buried in Poland during Napoleon's retreat from Russia, and the main takeaway was that "it wasn't typhus that killed them, but something similar" and the shots of the skeletons under excavation made me realize that those French soldiers had pretty good teeth.
perhaps not the conclusion that the authors were trying to convey.

I like the way he blends the skull in with the landscape, and the fact that it is not the bleached white bone we are used to seeing depicted in pop culture, that makes the blending of foreground and background seem more natural. I also like that the fall foliage in the background is an almost uniform dull brown; a colorful background including reds and yellows probably would not be as effective. I think he probably shows a bit too much of the sky in the picture. Using the scroll function of the website, I think the picture is best with the top ⅛ of the painting removed.

I'd prefer her there than some dumb white house bid. After seeing what McConnell was able to do to this country, I'd prefer her there wielding similar but opposing power.
Honestly, she's been mostly consistent in her stances AND she's under 60. Low bar, but here we are. Senate in 28, President in 36? One can dream...

Reading excepts from his interview with Katie Couric, you can see his decency. She tees him up numerous times to call Trump and Kirk Nazis and he refuses and makes her look like a ghoul in comparison.
I think he is sincere.
May not agree with his politics, but he is a rare 2025 Democrat who shows restraint.

Temu -- cheap, shoddy, foreign, and Chinese-owned

Temu is a Chinese company that makes super-cheap stuff, knockoffs.

"I am open to suggestions, preferably a solution that allows us to actually preserve the spirit if not the entirety of the Constitution"
Either the Constitution permits what has been done, or is wholly inadequate to prevent it. It needs replaced. I think the most blatant flaws are judges, by which I mean LAWYERS, playing the "you lack standing" game, preventing redress; lack of real penalties for officials violating the clear language and enabling crime and foreign invasion; and tolerance for public plotting of the same. And vote fraud probably needs the death penalty.

Where are you going to work at? A large city, small city? Mail handling is rough. They are all rough, clerks and carriers too.
As a probationary (and regular) you will most likely be working 12 hour shifts with (rarely) a day off. Half day schedule! A lot of people can’t handle that.
And when you haven’t got the schemes memorized, it is pure torture at first. The belt will have maybe 10,000 parcels and packages. Pick it up, look at the last 3 digits of the zip. Throw it in the correct pouch. There are maybe 150 of them. It’s easy once you memorize everything. Before that, not so much.

McCain was a duplicitous, back stabbing, corrupt POS. Not only was he in on the Russia hoax he was as deep in the corruption in Ukraine as Biden. He was a malignant scumbag with no honor.

Kroller-Muller Museum
In part, "Edgar Fernhout comes from a famous family of artists. He is the son of Charley Toorop and grandson of Jan Toorop and starts painting himself at an early age. Initially he works in a very precise, realistic style. The works from this early period, mainly landscapes and portraits, are also termed magic realism, due to the austere and hushed character of the scenes."
Fernhout made many still lifes during the war years, because he refused to become a member of the Kultuurkamer and was forced to work indoors. In these works the skull is a frequently recurring motif, a reference to the transience of life.

If you've been to Braddock, you can understand that Fetterman has an interest in helping those at the lower end of the economic scale.
McCain, with his second squeeze's booze distributor money, despised those on the lower end of the economic scale. See his "hobbits" slam, for example.

Yes, this is a classic USPS dodge. It is listed as a “part time” gig.
That means nothing. 12 hour shifts, you get one day off every week, which will vary. Trust Me. What the goal is, is to make “Regular”. Then you’ll have a published schedule. With a couple days off now and then, on a regular basis.
Do not get hurt, don’t be late, and don’t steal, and they probably won’t fire you during probation.

Fetterman is someone I could respect. He has principles. He has character. I don't agree with him politically, but he would probably be a hoot at the neighborhood cookout. I like the fact that he defends Israel and he defends civility. Constantly calling the President of the United States a Nazi and a tyrant and fascist is just ugly. Saying he's the absolute worst person in the world is wrong. Fetterman sees that and calls it out. I would like for him to say that anyone doing that should not ever be in a position of power. Meh. I'll take what I can get.
I don't hate Senator Fetterman.

I watched Kenneth Branagh's Conspiracy about the Wannsee Conference yesterday. In a coda they tell what happened to each of them. It was distressing to see how few faced any real consequences.
(I liked the movie although I thought Branagh's Heydrich was a bit too jovial. Stanley Tucci's Eichmann was sleazy, sleazy, sleazy.)

Many people wig out and quit. Make sure you’re up to it. 12 hour days get old really quick. You will have no life, because of the hours, and the night shift thing. And it is hard work.
Federal holidays mean nothing, surprisingly enough. You will work all of those, although you’ll get a night differential pay, and Sunday pay. About $22 an hour, maybe.

Wikipedia, in part, "... born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[2][3] When she was seven years old, she came to the United States as an undocumented immigrant with her mother and younger brother, taking up residence in a one-room apartment in New York City.[4][2][5] They left Brazil due to violent crime in their community.[2][6] In New York, the family lived in poverty, and furnished their apartment with furniture they found on the street.[4] Fetterman said that her family often depended on food banks and thrift stores.[2] Her mother, who has a PhD degree from a Brazilian university and had worked as a nutritionist and educator, took jobs cleaning hotels and houses, and was often denied pay due to her status as an undocumented immigrant.[2][6]
Fetterman did not speak English when she arrived in the US, and enrolled in an English as a second language program at her school in Queens.[2] The family later moved to Newark, New Jersey.[6] She studied at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.[7]

Far more true than most realize, even now. McCain recruited all of the other Senators into the money laundering, and the source of the money was Cindy McCain's old family organized crime connections, who were the ones backing Keating.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Doug Hegdahl when he was an instructor at Navy SERE school. He was a "lowly" enlisted sailor who had the misfortune of falling off a ship operating in the Gulf of Tokin and being turned over to North Vietnam forces after being pulled out of the drink by fisherman. He did time at the Hanoi Hilton before being released.
I have 100% respect for that guy and what he did to help improve conditions at the prison for the captives.
I have 0% respect for McCain, regardless of his status as a POW there.

The exhibits there are all about the abuses that the inmates suffered when the commies were imprisoned there by the French. It was almost all about how evil the French were. Only one room had anything to say about the American POWs there, and the Vietnamese guide would not take him in that one.

It’s a process. A long involved process. Whole day orientation for a couple days. Lots of movies and briefings. And then they’ll have you show up for work. “Part time” snares a lot of people unaware.
Sounds like you’ll come in for a few hours a week, right? A little extra spending money on the side. It ain’t like that. Be prepared for “Abandon All Hope, Ye Who Enter Here”. It is grueling. If you can make regular, and find something you like doing, it isn’t so bad.

The issue is what exactly is the "hoax"? Trump rightfully claims the Democrap masturbatory fetish about him participating in Epstein's perversion is a hoax, and he is 100% right about that. But the fact that Epstein and some very rich and powerful men behaved badly with women is not a hoax. It may be overblown and embellished, but it's not a hoax. It happened.
Posted by: Elric The Blade at November 14, 2025 10:54 AM (iFTx/)
Either the Constitution permits what has been done, or is wholly inadequate to prevent it. It needs replaced. I think the most blatant flaws are judges, by which I mean LAWYERS, playing the "you lack standing" game, preventing redress; lack of real penalties for officials violating the clear language and enabling crime and foreign invasion; and tolerance for public plotting of the same. And vote fraud probably needs the death penalty.

Wikipedia, in part, "In addition, McCain's wife Cindy McCain and her father Jim Hensley had invested $359,100 in the Fountain Square Project, a Keating shopping center, in April 1986, a year before McCain met with the regulators.[7][45] McCain, his family, and their baby-sitter had made nine trips at Keating's expense, sometimes aboard Keating's jet; three of the trips were made during vacations to Keating's Bahamas retreat at Cat Cay.[7] McCain did not pay Keating (in the amount of $13,433) for some of the trips until years after they were taken, when he learned that Keating was in trouble over Lincoln.[7][46]"

Trump never described Pedo Island as a hoax. It was a real series of events. Trump used the word "hoax" in referring to Democrat attempts to tie him to the scandal.

The Morning Report — 11/14/25
During an early morning walk, Senator Fetterman sustained a fall near his home in Braddock. Out of an abundance of caution, he was transported to a hospital in Pittsburgh. Upon evaluation, it was established he had a ventricular fibrillation flare-up that led to Senator Fetterman feeling light-headed, falling to the ground and hitting his face with minor injuries. Senator Fetterman had this to say: ‘If you thought my face looked bad before, wait until you see it now!’ He is doing well and receiving routine observation at the hospital. He has opted to stay so doctors can fine-tune his medication regimen. Senator Fetterman is grateful for the EMTs, doctors, and nurses who are providing his care.
Despite his party affiliation, his outspoken opposition to that party's positions on a number of crucial issues as well as their violent rhetoric and smearing of President Trump and his supporters has earned for him, at least in my eyes a level of respect I never thought I'd give when he first came onto the political scene running against Dr. Oz. Seems like a million years ago now. To me, John Fetterman is sort of an almost RINO, but kind of in a good way when you think about it, considering the actual definition of the term? Yes, at the end of the day he is a doctrinaire liberal Democrat and as a politician will no doubt go where he's kicked and generally vote the party line, but his willingness to sepeak honestly, openly, frankly and loudly against the hardcore leftist maniacs and their positions is both refreshing and welcome. So I personally wish him well and that he has a full and speedy recovery.
I will bookend this with a report breaking this morning of the hospitalization of "Reverend" Jesse Jackson due to a progressively worsening "rare" neurological disorder, along with Parkinsons disease that he had been battling for the past several years. Jackson's record as one of the most divisive racialists and race-hustlers to have blighted the American societal/political landscape is extensive, and as such he has done more to put people at each other's throats than anyone until the coming of Al Sharpton and of course Barack Hussein Obama. I'll not share my feelings about Jesse Jackson as I'm sure you can probably draw your own conclusions. Elsewhere, I give you a well-written piece that is otherwise clueless or naive in its outlook.
Congress Has Forgotten How to Legislate Congress once built the future through lawmaking; today, it mostly performs instead of legislates.That's just the headline and sub-head. Where to even begin. Congress generally does not want to legislate as passing laws would make members of both parties politically vulnerable to voters should they pass unpopular legislation. On the other side of that coin, the author seems to have forgotten all about that thing called OBAMACARE which it's namesake and Congress rammed down the throats of the American people with virtually zero debate. Of course seizing one sixth of the American economy and literal control over the life and death of the populace tends to make gaining and maintaining absolute power that much easier. Tyrants and despots have known this sine time immemorial, and when Obama boasted about fundamentally transforming America that was not mere rhetoric. It was is and always will be his and his fellow travelers goal, by any and every means necessary. About the only thing that has stood in their way has been President Trump and his ability to wield executive power in an attempt to rein in the real legislative power of Washington DC – the unelected unofficial and all-too-powerful so-called Fourth branch of government: the administrative state, bureaucracy. And that has been challenged and fought tooth and nail by Democrats, GOP sellouts and of course a rogue judiciary. And, it is heartening to see that the administration is serious about going after Antifa in declaring it a foreign terrorist organization, although quite a bit of its terrorism is being inflicted right here at home. And on that note, with the rise of CommunISlam here at home, we face a monstrous internal threat like never before.
The Democrat party has transformed itself into the Democratic Socialists of America.Yes as the title states American Communism must be eradicated. I am open to suggestions, preferably a solution that allows us to actually preserve the spirit if not the entirety of the Constitution, the rule of a just and stable law and our society and that does not entail bloodshed — except of course in self defense. And internationally, things seem to be heating up in the southern hemisphere.

The bottom line is that congress, in the main, does not represent the people and are largely there to feather their own nests and the nests of the paymasters and controllers.
What else can explain their constant drive to implement amnesty in some form or fashion even after they have been told directly by the people that we do not want amnesty.

Congress generally does not want to legislate as passing laws would make members of both parties politically vulnerable to voters should they pass unpopular legislation.
When was the last time that a Congress followed the Constitutionally described appropriations process in order to have monies appropriated for an upcoming fiscal year? Or, to put it in terms of how they have dodged doing so, when was the last time the government was NOT funded via Congress passing a continuing resolution?

Many of the institutions are so infected that it is necessary to bypass them. The university is dead. Hollywood is dead. The mainstream media is dead. Public education is dead in many parts of the country. What is emerging are new, functional institutions empowered by new technology and new rules. Communism eventually collapses the system. America is probably the only country that can develop a parallel functional system while the infected parts die.

Sen. Jack Reed (D-RI) hesitated before concluding that yes, it was worth it to him as well.
“I think it was because I think the perception — we made it clear that it’s not just a healthcare issue, but the whole issue,” he said.

From an absurdity viewpoint, we can laugh at this all we want. But I'm horrified at this. Ok, it's CA, where these kids know about anal sex, but can't add 7 + 2, but public schools from coast to coast are churning out very similar stats, I have no doubt. It's a colossal failure of the education system and the effects on the future of what's left of this country are going to be completely catastrophic.

I'm old enough to remember when he was "hired" as the close spiritual adviser to Bubba Clinton "and family" during and following the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
It's grifting all the way down ...
Also, Jackson of course was an opportunist who used the assassination of MLK, Jr. to position and "stage" himself as KIng's successor.
For example, several witnesses -- including Rev. Hosea Williams -- stated that Jackson was not near King when he was shot and that the blood on Jackson’s shirt (a turtleneck he wore on TV appearances the following day, including NBC’s “Today Show”
likely came from the balcony floor, not direct contact with King.Posted by: ShainS -- Bury My Heart At a Texas MoMe at November 14, 2025 08:14 AM (YMXsV)

We don't want troops on the ground, and can probably chase Maduro out of there ... although "Regime Change" brings back many recent bad memories.
Nigeria, and Trump's desire to end the persecution and execution of Christians, will be a harder slog; not sure that can be resolved without troops on the ground and "Regime Change" ...

Dammit. I've been thinking of bringing bacon into the mix. But I dunno. This is pretty filling as it is, and I love the simple, austere perfection of the toast and eggs. Maybe if I subbed out an egg for the bacon... but then I'd be down an egg, and I love the eggs. It's torturing me.

A technique someone suggested is add salt to the eggs, a splash of water, and salt. Mix thoroughly. Let set for at least 15 minutes.
Lots of butter. Lift up the edges and allow the runny portion to fill in the gaps. When almost dry (tricky part) flip the whole omelette and cook the ofher side. Add ingredients, fold into the half crescent shape. Voila!

Done right, a high-fat and protein breakfast eliminates the midday hunger. Much easier to lose/maintain weight w/o that extra meal.

One of the interesting dynamics that play out is that as people get more experience their salaries go up and for some reason LIVs don't get that.
The left goes to young people and says, "we need to tax the rich!" as if the people they are trying to tax are some other group of people...not these same young people in 20 or 30 years.
There is also a game where "the rich" getting taxed are supposedly people like Musk or Bezos. Whereas "the rich" that the left actually taxes are small business owners, people that climbed the corporate ladder, and professionals like doctors.

The left has always excelled in stoking class and generational warfare. Look at the trolls who come in here and there go to line is always some variation of "Boomers have ruined the world for us young people" without a shred of realization that not all people of every generation are the same or that some of us Boomers have been fighting this shit longer than they have been alive. Marxism 101. Marxists ruin shit like they did with Obamacare and the healthcare industry and then blame us for not bailing out the shitty system we never wanted in the first place.
There is no more Democrat Party. It is now a marxist party no matter what they call it and it will bloom into full blown marxism for this country if it isn't stopped. It's happening in western countries around the world. It's not a conspiracy theory, it's a well planned and well funded attempted takeover of the west.
And young people aren't going to be spared if they succeed. They will be slaves.

The NY Post has an article about Michael Wolff trying to work with Epstein to take out Trump.
In late 2015. Then into 2016.
This PoS (supposedly an author) was trying to work up a blackmail angle.
But I just remembered something - Wasn't it only a few short months ago that there was a "love letter", claiming to be between Trump and Epstein, complete with a bawdy drawing of a woman? They say it was from 2003, but given how fast and loose the Democrats et al are playing with the truth, I'm now wondering if the Wolff malfeasance is related and there was another Ra*Th*erGate situation that was simply glossed over.

This portion of your URL "si=XvgmqJylz1Nxq-Y2" is a tracking tag. If someone clicks on that link it will tie their YT account to your YT account. If you are even remotely paranoid about TPTB tracking everything about you, you should remove that.
Assuming that you do remove the tracking tag, and that no other modifiers - like start time - are included, you can also remove the '?'. This would leave https://youtu.be/4J8jcI0WtzM as the entirety of the useable URL.

Too much of the Dem party's leadership is captured by AIPAC. Their little colony on Palestine land will not see the end of this century, inshallah.
The Dems will snub democratic socialists every time they lose their own primaries to us. we cannot leave the fate of our politics within a hostile court. DSA needs to be the legitimate and dignified political party that it ought to be instead of assuming we’ll always be in the Dem’s good graces.
You literally can't have democracy without socialism, which is democracy in the economic realm. As we all know, if billionaires control all the money (or even just capitalists generally) and control all the workplaces, that is a dictatorship.

2) I eat almost no high-processed foods. I honestly don't know how I came to that; just bit by bit cooking everything. Like, this week, the only thing I've not eaten made from scratch was the biscuits for the breakfast egg-sausage-cheese sandwiches.

Muslims slaughtered 130 and maimed
683. Victims were castrated, raped, disembowelled and tortured before execution. French authorities suppressed this fact for 'social cohesion'.
The attackers targeted White people, and actively let non-White people go, saying things like "it's OK, you're one of us." A tanned Frenchman, often mistaken in his personal life for a North African or some kind, was let go for this reason. All of this was hidden by authorities.

Yes as the title states American Communism must be eradicated. I am open to suggestions, preferably a solution that allows us to actually preserve the spirit if not the entirety of the Constitution
As always, we need to keep in mind that the commie cocksuckers believe that the mere existence of non-commie types is a problem in need of a solution, one that's final in nature. Don't believe it? Just feed them a drink and ask them. The commies don't have any problem telling you that this is what they're after. They're counting on normal folks' innate decency to keep the population compliant until they feel powerful enough to flex their muscle.
They've been down that path several times before, in fact it would be easier to list the times they HAVEN'T.

Anyway, at the end of the meeting Trump sprayed both sides of Jolani’s neck with “Victory 45-47,” his $249 cologne. “It’s the best fragrance,” he told the room. “And then the other one is for your wife,” Trump said to Jolani. “How many wives? One?” Jolani laughed: “One.” “With you guys, I never know,” Trump said, beaming. Smells like Eau de Jihadi.

The outro song was a banger!
https://youtu.be/FhAfXTzR2rQ
Cool backstory (from Wiki):
the closing theme was written by an Atlanta musician named Jim Ellis, who also wrote incidental music for WKRP. He didn’t have any lyrics for the tune yet, so he sang a bunch of gibberish to give a feel for the song. Hugh Wilson, the series producer, decided to use it anyway, as he decided it would be a humorous commentary on the incomprehensibility of many rock lyrics. He also figured since network announcers usually talked over the closing credits, that viewers wouldn’t be able to hear the lyrics anyway.

All laws can be boiled down to "uniformed thug with legal immunity pointing a gun at your face and demanding your property or your life in service to any number of social issues"
So you want to operate a cupcake cafe business? Pay these taxes/fees. Refuse to pay, and we start off with an unarmed fat Karen harassing you in the middle of the business day. Continue to refuse, and it ends up with a squad of armed Sheriff's Deputies locking down your business, shooting your dog and taking you to the pokey in bracelets.

From above, 'The Democrat party has transformed itself into the Democratic Socialists of America'
Because almost no one took it seriously?
Read some local, public Facebook pages a day or two after the recent elections in PA (that the Dems LARGELY took) & was surprised to see the exchanges between Antifa supporters and those whom they considered Fascists, or leaning towards in both cases.
Lots of accusations, of course, but the people at or leaning towards Antifa acknowledged they were socialists or communists, or very close to, and 'fighting' fascism was near and dear to their hearts. Further, it seemed that several defended Antifa as a component of American patriotism & were more than casually familiar with recent military service. (i.e., Don't you dare put that on me! I've served to protect...)
I think an awful lot of people - perhaps those more so in urbanized areas, involved with education and/or trades (which is about everything around here) - are not clear as to what embodies socialism, communist, and fascism.

Top Story
- The three big memory chip makers - Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix - have two messages for you: First, things are going to get worse before they get better, and second, they never said anything about things getting better. (Tom's Hadware)
AI server deployments are eating all available memory production sending prices soaring for everyone else, and the big three have already committed to $54 billion in factory expansion.
Despite the supply crunch they are loath to commit more funds right now, because there used to be a lot more memory producers and the reason there are only three survivors is because of the bust that came after the last bubble burst.
- Meanwhile Elon Musk's companies are looking to expand their own semiconductor production facilities. (WCCFTech)
Currently Tesla has a PCB plant in Texas, and is building out an advanced packaging facility - working with bare dies to create tightly integrated modules - to come online next year.
Longer term the group is looking at building its own chipmaking facilities, but that just shifts the bottleneck from TSMC to ASML, the one company in the world that makes leading edge chip fabrication equipment.
Tech News
- They stuck the landing: On the second launch window, New Glenn sent the Escapade mission on its way to Mars and then successfully landed on Blue Origin's drone ship. (Tech Crunch)
Good to see.
- Netflix is now streaming casual party games. (The Verge)
I've already cancelled my subscription, which makes it hard to show them how I feel about this.
- Want faster networking but have a laptop with only wifi, or at best wired gigabit Ethernet? Qnap has you covered. (Notebook Check)
The Qnap QNA-UC25G2SF is a USB4 (or any USB-C port) adapter that offers not one, but two 25Gb Ethernet ports.
No, not 2.5. Ten times that.
It's kind of chunky and costs a lot more than, say, a dual 40Gb PCIe card (which you can pick up for $40 if you shop around), but if you don't have a PCIe slot you don't have a ton of options.
- Chinese hackers used Anthropic's AI to automate cyberattacks. (MSN)
Yay.
- Programming the Commodore 64 with Microsoft .Net. (RetroC64)
No.
Just... No.
- Bought a turkey. It's defrosting in the fridge right now, set to become Sunday dinner. Unless I fail spectacularly somehow, which I probably won't given I've roasted at least a hundred chickens and one duck without such a mishap.

We treated them both with Bravecto yesterday. Dagny took it in stride. Stirling hates the sensation of it being applied to his skin, and then gallops around for an hour as if he has ants on him. Both got some kitty treats after, so I think they'll forgive us.

I doubt they would be impressed that they are famous on this almost-famous blog, but I am. Really, I need to snap some new shots of them and send those to KT for the Pet Thread. They have both grown and filled out quite a bit in three years -- Dagny especially. She looked kind of spindly when she was five months old. Now she is built like a little fluffy fireplug.

Mine both love to look out of the screen door, but don't really want to risk their necks out there. Stirling got out one Saturday afternoon when I failed to latch the screen. He went about four feet, crouched down, and cried for me to come get him.
Linda took Dagny out in her arms during the snow session in January. No idea if it was the cold, the feel of the snow, or the sudden wide and scary world, but Dagny let out yowls you could have heard across the street. And she is famously silent.

There's only 1 pet in our house now, since I lost my beloved Lab Elizabeth to cancer at 9 years old. Losing a family member hurts so bad and it's a long time before it can be faced directly--least it has been for me with Mom and Dad (my role model).
Our pet now is a feral cat younger daughter fostered, took to the shelter where my wife saw him and fell in love. Now we have him and he's turned into Mr. Super Sociable after a 2 year stint as Basement Cat.
And it seems that yours truly is his chosen human.

I will. You could see what Stirling would grow into -- he's just larger in all dimensions and has grown to match his big ears and paws. Dagny is another story. From what I understand, Siberians are often like that: They transform over the first three to five years.

Linux isn't like Windows or MacOs. The way Arch works isn't the way Fedora works which isn't the way Gentoo works which isn't the way Ubuntu works which isn't the way Obarun works (but it's close to Arch in some ways) which isn't the way Slackware works and there's variants that I have no idea exist that work differently.
That paragraph just about how you install, update, and add more programs to your setup.
Linux doesn't have a standard GUI like Windows or MacOs. In fact, there's a difference between your GUI and a "Desktop environment." Windows and MacOs provide "Desktop environments"; the programs you install can know about other programs that you've installed and the GUI you look at can provide somewhat intelligent integration.

Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at November 14, 2025 05:53 AM (a1415)
Your install might use KDE, Gnome, Enlightenment, and maybe others I don't know about. Those would be "Desktop environments". KDE is close to the Windows experience, I think Gnome is close to the MacOs experience (I use MacOs at work but I haven't installed Gnome for over a decade, so I might be WAAY wrong in that assessment), and the last time that I installed Enlightenment, it was closer to the Windows experience.
There are "Window managers" like CDE, FVWM or others, which you might consider after you've been using Linux in a GUI for a while.

Frog has always preferred to sleep laid out fully on his back with all four legs stretched out akimbo.
But his sister, Margo has always preferred the more traditional and modest 'lay on her belly' position, and never willingly exposed her belly while sleeping.
But with Mrs VIA being gone for those ten days, and now having returned, out of the blue, Margo has developed a desire to plop on the couch directly next to her, and stretch full out on her back, just like her brother does.

Well....except that 'healing' should be 'heating'
It's been a lot of attention to detail while trying to dial this system in.
But as the Lennox technician, whom I have an outstanding relationship with, says....only you would have the time and attention to detail to tweet this system the way you are doing it.
But my theory is, if they wish to allow air flow adjustments in 25 cfm increments, and temp reading and calibration set point in .1 and .5 degree increments, that ability is there because it is important to be able to do so.

It allows you to get valuable information neatly packaged in smart suave answer all delivered to you in about two and a half seconds. To wit:
Duck AI, which Bond girl had the largest bustline?
"The Bond girl with the largest bustline is often considered to be Ursula Andress, who played Honey Ryder in the film Dr. No (1962). Her iconic introduction in a white bikini has remained a defining moment in the James Bond franchise. Other notable mentions for larger bustlines include Britt Ekland as Mary Goodnight in The Man with the Golden Gun and Barbara Bach as Anya Amasova in The Spy Who Loved Me, but Ursula Andress generally holds the title."
Now THAT'S added value.

I put them in a plastic container before I popped them into the freezer. Maybe I could float that in cold water.

It probably doesn't matter. The thing they're pushing, however, is AGI. General intelligence - basically a human mind in a computer body. With access to all the data in the world. Able to contemplate matters with complete dispassion. To solve the world's problems... perfectly.
To be the Wizard of Oz. All powerful from the perspective of the masses but still a slave to its programming and the information permitted it. A way to control the population without seeming to control the population.

"The airspeed of an unladen European swallow is typically around 11 meters per second, or approximately 24 miles per hour. This figure has become a humorous reference from the film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," where it's used in a comedic context.
If you're curious about swallows or their flight patterns, feel free to ask!"

I keep wondering if A.I. is a nothingburger or the end of mankind.
Check our the YouTube A.I. Elvis shorts where he's dropped into Star Trek, Gladiator or a dozen other features as the star; to me they are indistinguishable from real life.
Then think of the army of production people, writers, star actors and directors that produce entertainment, not to mention the money. They aren't needed anymore.
These videos don't seem to be monetized, and the images of dead stars don't seem to have copyright value.

If they make me pay for it, I'm at least going to enjoy one of two scenarios to the fullest:
a) Shrinking the Windows partition down to the bare minimum footprint, and then installing Linux in a dual boot/primary operating system configuration, and then imagine Windows rotting in a dark sub-basement prison cell for the rest of its miserable, never-going-to-boot again existence.
b) Going scorched earth on the drive and installing linux overtop of Windows. (Nuke the former OS from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.)

A campaign to make late Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley an honorary astronaut has been launched, and fans can sign a petition to show their support for the cause. "On October 16, 2025, the world lost not just a legend, not just a rock icon, but also a good man," says organiser Katherine Sugg. "Paul Daniel 'Ace' Frehley, at the tender age of 21, was brave enough to take one small orange step and one small red step, and make the giant leap into the global phenomenon that we all now know as Kiss. And while most of his dreams ended up coming true, at least one did not. "When he suddenly passed away from a brain bleed following a head injury at 74, he was still only merely playing the character of a Space Cadet. He never got to be one for real. In honour of his memory, all the lives directly and indirectly impacted by him, and his one last remaining unfulfilled wish, NASA should posthumously make Ace Frehley an honorary astronaut with the rank of “Captain”, because a celestial being of his calibre doesn’t deserve anything less of a send-off than this. His last countdown should be his absolute best!"Hit the link for more detail and the link to the online petition
Australian soldiers slipped the letters into a bottle, closed the cap, and pitched it overboard from a ship in the Pacific Ocean as World War I battlefields beckoned them both. The bottle was a time capsule that would be delivered by fate—and it arrived for overjoyed ancestors last month—more than 100 years after the bottle first hit the water. On October 9, Peter Brown and his daughter Felicity found the Schweppes-brand bottle resting just above the waterline at Wharton Beach on the south coast of Western Australia. The Brown family frequently walks the beach and helps to clear garbage, but this piece was much more treasure than trash. Nestled inside the bottle were letters written by two Army privates, Malcolm Neville and William Harley, originally dated August 15,1916. *** Neville’s letter from “somewhere at sea” requested that the finder send its contents to his mother in South Australia. “We’re having a real good time, food is real good so far, with the exception of one meal which we buried at sea…The ship is heaving and rolling, but we are as happy as Larry”—which is a well-known Australian expression of contentment.Check out the whole thing. Kinda cool! Not related but somehow related (obligatory)
Three works from Bob Ross’ classic public television show The Joy of Painting raised over half a million dollars for public television. Having relied for decades on endowment contributions and pledge drives of every tact and description, it was brilliant idea that puts a brilliant man and his brilliant perspective on the arts back into the spotlight 30 years after his death. “I think this actually would have been Bob’s idea,” said Joan Kowalski, president of Bob Ross Inc., the firm that manages his likeness, content, and collection of thousands of works that he painted on television, in advance of the auction. “And when I think about that, it makes me very proud.” The auction came months after cuts to PBS and other stations were passed in the most recent budget, but also as a pair of Bob Ross paintings touched, and then surmounted, 6-figure valuations—something very rarely seen before.Let the market decide!

Sell stuff to pay for PBS? Sure.
Three Bob Ross Paintings Sold for $600,000 at Auction in Fundraiser for Public Television
Much better than sitting around in a broom closet.
From a 4-year-old article "Why it's nearly impossible to buy an original Bob Ross painting:"
When Ross died in 1995, Bob Ross, Inc. (and thus, the paintings) became the sole property of Annette Kowalski and her husband, Walt.
Today, 1,165 Bob Ross originals - a trove worth millions of dollars - sit in cardboard boxes inside the company’s nondescript office building in Herndon, Virginia.
The "Joan Kowalski" in the article in the Content is Annette's daughter. Hoarding Bob Ross's stuff is the family business, I guess.

When Ross died in 1995, Bob Ross, Inc. (and thus, the paintings) became the sole property of Annette Kowalski and her husband, Walt.
Today, 1,165 Bob Ross originals - a trove worth millions of dollars - sit in cardboard boxes inside the company’s nondescript office building in Herndon, Virginia.
The "Joan Kowalski" in the article in the Content is Annette's daughter. Hoarding Bob Ross's stuff is the family business, I guess.
Posted by: mikeski paints a happy little tree at November 13, 2025 10:16 PM (nhCoE)
There's a little more to the story than that. Bob Ross owned 1/3 of the company when he died, and he wanted that share to transfer to his son. The Kowalskis owned the other 2/3, and blocked that from happening. They were - and are - in no position to know what Bob would have wanted.

He recorded this in 1970, for the All Things Must Pass album. It actually sounds at least five years ahead of its time. "The Art Of Dying." Phil Collins was in the studio on this song, playing congos (but you can't hear him).

Copeland is highly underrated as a drummer. I recently listened to the Zeyatta and Ghost albums on a road trip. I was too young to really appreciate them when they came out.

Interestingly, Copeland has talked about how it was originally impossible for him to figure out how to drum it. Says there's 'no downbeat,' which I'm not 100% sure what he's talking about.

Anyone here familiar with Robbie Williams? From what I understand he's a rock singer that's much more popular in the UK than in the US.
Anyway, he was a big fan of Video Killed The Radio Star and all of Trevor Horn's producing work. In 2009, when Robbie finally got Trevor to produce an album for him, he named it:
Reality Killed The Video Star.

In a memoire about a guy growing up in Alaska in the late 40's he talked about the Norwegian guy who lived on a claim up the river from them and would get drunk and throw the bottle with a post card in it into the river where it generally would wash up on the sand bar by the mouth of the river. They decided to mail one of the post cards to a friend in California to mail back.
The old guy was so excited, they decided to keep mailing them to various people his Dad knew all over, including in Africa and Asia.
Eventually he was so invested in this sort of thing that they never had the heart to tell him the truth.

One of my favorites is “Seasons”, some tunes are just fun to play, physically, as much as sonically. Hard to explain. This is one them. It’s in some weird tuning so I don’t mess with it too often, but it’s got some great riffs and killer crunch.

“Invisible Sun” was the song that got me to like The Police. “Roxanne” didn’t reach me on its release, and it was so overplayed that I never gave The Police any thought…until “Invisible Sun” made its debut on WMMR. It didn’t sound anything like “Roxanne”, and it immediately grabbed me. I became a fan, and eventually was able to sing along with the dreaded “Roxanne”.
I’ve loved “Journey Of The Sorcerer” since I first heard it as the theme song for Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy”.

I know that Journey was a *very* different band pre-Perry. They tried to copy Santana's approach to jazz-rock, IIRC.
It's also interesting to hear what Fleetwood Mac sounded like pre-Buckingham/Nicks.

We really only have those five albums to judge his work on.
This is also why Sting could not wait to get out of the band because their sound was too limiting for his evolving sensibilities and tastes.

Agree! One year, we had chicken-fried pork chops, salad, apple pie and *of course* mashed taters n gravy. It was a welcome change!
Helped that there were only 4 of us that year...a turkey would've been too much and none of us really cared for cranberry sauce, greenbean casserole or dinner rolls.

Posted by: fourseasons
I agree with both of these. I find a lot of people who complain about the work involved with the holidays, are the same people who drive themselves crazy trying to make everything perfect.
IMHO It's not necessary or even possible for everything to be just right every year, and I'd rather just relax with family than be forced (or force anyone else) to do, create and present all the "correct things."
When it comes to Thanksgiving, I have a sister who insists on doing it all anyway, and I'm thankful for her. But at the same time, I tell her every year, don't kill yourself. I wouldn't have any problem if we just went out to eat for Thanksgiving.

Bar band I often played in the sometime horn section in Baltimore did this. It was awesome, people screamed.
I lived with the bass player and it was my idea and he sold it to the band. Everyone thought it was a monster coupling. People went nuts.

This was due to two facts: 1) we and the kids loved the show; and 2) we actually were friends with Arthur Rankin Jr. (of Rankin Bass) whom we met while sailing to/from, and then living in, Bermuda (Ca. 1996-2016) we lived there full time from 2010 to the end of 2026. Arthur was a true character, brilliant, a product of Vaudeville and a former Navy man! The world lost a great talent when he passed.

Parsley has furanocoumarins, the same as the weedy wild parsnip that photosensitizes your skin and causes burns. It also has oxalic acid, just the ticket for good strong kidney stones.

I always liked the song gates of steel. Probably the big power chords is what it is. One time at practice with this one band, probably in the mid 80s, the drummer was playing the same beat. He was testing something, can't remember if it was a snare drum or cymbal but he was just hammering the same beat. Of course asshole me cranks up the huge wall of amps, like really loud, and started hammering the chords. Then the bass player joins in, lol. We looked at each other and said yeah lets just pretend that didn't happen. lol

I did that several years ago (not $1k worth, though.)
One Cayman Islands dime, from a Caribbean cruise, somehow escaped from my "souvenirs" and found its way into my spare-change can.
Coin-counters make a heck of a racket when you put in a coin that they can't sort. Loudest dime ever.

Sounds like me. My tools have tools, lol. I have a fuck ton of mechanics tools. Thats no surprise because of the harley thing, and the car thing. Over the years I ended up with piles of the same things, just different brands. So there's 2 tall roller boxes packed. The contractor tools are the surprise. I have all the shit I had when I did kitchens and baths in a different life. It was all good stuff, a lot of the corded milwaukee stuff, some makita stuff, etc Sawzalls, circular saws, panel saws, worm drive saws for framing, actual swiss made bosch jigsaws for doing cutouts in countertops, etc. For some reason I have 5 times the amount of those tools than I had when I did it as a job. They just frigging multiply. Some of it's my fault, some I can't explain, lol.

Northern Lights over the "Garden of the Gods"
in Colorado Springs, by Daniel Forster
SAVAGE NATURE Toddler loves his horse. Airport reunion. Transom Cat watches you, judges you. Super senior dachshund out on an adventure. First snow of winter. Huge tree in a storm. This better not be AI. Cats are much more naive about AI. Flashback: Waterproof mobile phones in the early 2000s. European starlings are great mimics. Almost as good as the black guy in Police Academy. (Whose name I just realize I know, for some reason-- Michael Winslow. I wonder what important bit of knowledge my brain deleted to hard-code that.) Do you like monkeys? Do you like vermin who crawl all over you? Then you'll love monkey vermin.
If you see two people dancing, you're left-brained, if you see a bowl of fruit, you're right brained. Well okay but I see Elsie the cow and I can't unsee her, so I guess I'm just f***ed. Back me up -- it's a cow, right? That's not really proof of anything, I primed you to see a cow. But at least I'm no longer alone in the world.

There were some tropes on 1970s TV that seemed to pop up everywhere.
- The guy who doesn't know who he is or how he got there.
- The bad guy who does all his bad stuff in person, but dressed as a woman.
- The super-smart monkey who shows everyone up in every sitcom.

The one last year was visible to the naked eye and came in green and red colors, but the pictures really popped.
I don't know if it's just the phone camera or if any digital camera would do that (I neglected to run that experiment last night on account of it would have required driving out of town.)

First time I visited the deserts of Southern Utah, around Moab, I was like, ahhhh THIS is what the planet Vulcan looks like!! The western desert landscapes have to be seen in person to be believed. You do feel like you are oh another planet.
Another park I hope to visit one day: Craters of the Moon in Idaho. Apparently it does feel like you are walking on the moon.
Sad I missed the northern lights!

Entertainment was once my gold standard for entertainment news. The finally jumped the shark for me when their movie reviews by Owen and Lisa went woke (she gave Juno an A- because Juno didn't abort her baby!), and then having Stephen King as a guest columnist (with a portrait of him looking like a demented The Grinch in really harsh ominous lighting). He was insufferable in those columns. I hate read them.
Horde, what are some of the greatest entertainment media casualties you wish the left hadn't ruined? EW as a magazine is up there for me, near the top. But wokeism plus internet killed it. I listen to youtubers for box office news and movie recommends now.
(Good luck with your new movie channel, TJM! Slow and steady, plus consistency, is key. Don't rush the process. Hopefully friends here and elsewhere like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to help your algorithm. Because the YT algorithm is a capricious she-devil of great evil.)

Supposedly, it was sung by Loulie Jean Norman, a soprano coloratura, although there appears to be some disputation about this. The style of singing is known as 'faux-Latin'.
If you hear the singing, it is a Season 1 episode, as it was removed after Season 1.

And Uncle Ben. Sad how we lost our beloved Jemima, Ben and the Land O'Lakes maiden.
Makes me think back to the multi-racial neighborhood of my youth. We had white kids, mostly Italian and Polish, lots of black families, lots of brown familes (mostly Portuguese in our 'hood) a smattering of Chinese, Pacific Islander, some Native Americans off-the-nearby-rez, lots of Middle Eastern Christians (Syrian, Egyptian, Lebanese, Turkish.) And I can honestly say is that to us kids, what color/race/background someone was meant not one good goddam thing. Never. Nobody ever once said "Oh, we can't ask Paul to play football, he's black." That wasn't a thing that existed. All we cared about was if a kid was cool, and up for playing baseball, or basketball, or street hockey, or building a fort or whatever. Not one kid in my neighborhood regardless of color would ever have even thought to have been offended by Aunt Jemima.

It used to be, re-naming geological features, maps, mountains &c. was like pulling teeth. They didn’t want to do it, because it is a huge pain in the ass and, there will never be an end to it.
“Squaw” is the Indian word for Female. That’s it. There is no negative connotation to it. Or at least no more than ordinarily attached by the natives themselves.
Lewis & Clark noted that the practices varied widely among different nations. Some were quite enlightened, some were quite bad. One tribe relegated all menial tasks to the women, and the warriors laid around all day doing pretty much nothing. Noble Savage indeed.

Canadian Thanksgiving and Halloween were in October.
Since I'm alone, I may see if I can help out at a soup kitchen on Christmas.
My friends came yesterday and we had our 4th annual Christmas in November party. The kids like to decorate the tree. Plenty of food brought by my friends. I had gifts for the kids.
The outside was decorated today. The lights look great. I have to do leaves one last time and may put out a few more spotlights. There's a few last little things inside - nothing major. It's just me and the dog in the house. Mom would love the decorations, as always.
And I don't give a crap about New Years. I guess I'm now good until the next Daylight savings time. Weird.

Bill Grandstaff lived in that canyon, all by hisself, in a cabin in the 19th Century. There weren’t hardly anybody living in Moab then. A black guy was pretty rare. So it’s easy to see how he got his nickname. They weren’t being mean, that was what they called him, probably simply to distinguish from any other Bills in the area.
They renamed it “Negro Bill” in the 1980s, maybe a little bit later.

I didn't even bother looking. The clouds were rolling in.
Plus, I was so spoiled about the Northern Lights. In April of 1985, buddy and I drove from Wyoming to Alaska, and we were treated to the most spectacular Lights ever. Four nights. So many variations. Dancing ribbons, all the colors, and some really weird stuff. North of Lethbridge, some time before dawn, the lights became a sheet of white feathers, from horizon to horizon. Very symmetrical. Like wallpaper.

"But something happened to Tucker Carlson in early 2023 that profoundly changed him.
In his own words, he was 'physically mauled by a demon or something unseen that left claw marks on my sides. Then I was seized with this very intense desire to read the Bible.'
The demon attacked him during his sleep, with his wife at his side and four dogs in the bed. In the interview he gave the Blaze 18 months later, he said he still bore the marks and woke up in the morning to find blood in the sheets." https://tinyurl.com/yc57pues
I guess my first question is, when the demon attack occurred, how long had it been since the dogs had had their toenails clipped?

What I now notice about Ticker is how annoying his voice has become. Lots of excursions to the higher registers and mad, out of character laughter. He acts like he's amped up on something.
His berating of Ted Cruz for not knowing the population of Iran just before the JDAM bombing crossed over to feminine hysteria, IMHO.

Women in primitive societies are reserved to things you can do if pregnant in and around the home camp - most food prep. Men went out on more or less extended hunting expeditions that required some danger and strength to haul the food back. I suppose home duties needing male strength like raising a hut would also be done by men.. Dealing with tame animals like chickens would be mostly done by women.

I get it, the meanings of words can change. Maybe they shouldn’t. “Chicanos” was the preferred nomenclature for a short while. Then “Latinos”. “Hispanic” is a classification invented by the Nixon era HUD, iirc. For benefits purposes.
“Afro-American” held sway for a brief shining moment, after “Negro” fell out of favor. Currently “Black With A Capital B” is de rigeur, but must be coupled with “white” in lower case, to signify superiority. I first saw this in the rarified air of Academe 30 years ago. I called Bullshit on it then.

He will at some point wake us up to get out of the covers, then get back under them, maybe go potty, and will move me inch by inch so I'll wake up and find myself almost pushed the bed. And he refuses to move, so
I have to shove his dead weight back. And he often stretches out his legs so his claws dig into my legs and wake me up.
It is the most distracting, yet fulfilling, sleep. And I struggle to sleep when his weight isn't pressed to my side.

So much we can learn from our indigenous peoples.”
One of the accounts I always found amusing/enlightening was by Tacitus who traveled among the German tribes in the 1st century. He said the women appeared to do all the day to work, even with the animals. He said the men were large, but appeared to practice with their weapons while they drank their strongly brewed bier most of the day. And that the highlight of the day was always when 2 of them would engage in a huge one on one fight over some perceived insult. If both survived they would go back to drinking with each other.
Well some things never change.

A Communist society is stagnant pursuant to evolutionary growth. It stifles any merit system. It rewards the wrong people, thus negating innovation.

Milan Prosecutors Investigate Supposed "Sniper Tourism," Involving Wealthy Elites Paying Guides to Take Them to the Bosnian War Zones to Kill People With Rifles
This sounds like a sci-fi action movie plot, which makes me skeptical.
Milan prosecutors investigate alleged 'sniper tourism' during Bosnian war Groups from Italy and elsewhere alleged to have paid Serb soldiers to shoot Sarajevo residents during siegeThis sounds to me like a dark fantasy that this guy wants to be true. People are comforted by the thought that the world is better than it really is. But other people are just as comforted by the idea that the world is much worse than it really is. Add into that Italy's very vibrant Communist scene, where there's always a market for stories about greedy capitalist pigs killing the virtuous poor, and... I'm going to want more proof than a "journalist's" research. And this is an idea that just seems to capture the public's imagination. I've seen most of these Humans Hunting Humans films. One I always see referenced, and want to see some day, is "The Tenth Victim" from 1965 starring Ursula Andress and Marcello Mastroianni.
Prosecutors in Milan have opened an investigation into Italians who allegedly paid members of the Bosnian Serb army for trips to Sarajevo so that they could kill citizens during the four-year siege of the city in the 1990s. More than 10,000 people were killed in Sarajevo by constant shelling and sniper fire between 1992 and 1996 in what was the longest siege in modern history, after Bosnia and Herzegovina declared independence from Yugoslavia. The snipers were perhaps the most feared element of life under siege in Sarajevo because they would pick off people on the streets, including children, at random, as if it was a video game or a safari. Groups of Italians and other nationalities, so-called "sniper tourists", are alleged to have participated in the massacre after paying large sums of money to soldiers belonging to the army of Radovan Karadžić, the former Bosnian Serb leader who in 2016 was found guilty of genocide and other crimes against humanity, to be transported to the hills surrounding Sarajevo so that they could shoot at the population for pleasure. Sarajevo is in a basin surrounded by mountains, which made cutting it off and attacking it particularly easy. Milan prosecutors, led by Alessandro Gobbi, launched an investigation aimed at identifying the Italians involved on charges of voluntary murder aggravated by cruelty and abject motives. The investigation originated from a legal complaint submitted by Ezio Gavazzeni, a Milan-based writer who gathered evidence on the allegations, as well as a report sent to the prosecutors by the former mayor of Sarajevo, Benjamina Karić. ... In the documentary, a former Serb soldier and a contractor claimed that groups of westerners would shoot at the civilian population from the hills around Sarajevo. Its claims have been vehemently denied by Serbian war veterans. ... Gavazzeni claimed "many, many, many Italians" were alleged to have been involved, without providing a figure. "There were Germans, French, English ... people from all western countries who paid large sums of money to be taken there to shoot civilians." He claimed the Italian suspects would meet in the northern city of Trieste and travel to Belgrade, from where the Bosnian Serb soldiers would accompany them to the hills of Sarajevo. "There was a traffic of war tourists who went to there to shoot people," he said. "I call it an indifference towards evil."
The 10th Victim (Italian: La decima vittima) is a 1965 science fiction film directed and co-written by Elio Petri, starring Marcello Mastroianni, Ursula Andress, Elsa Martinelli, and Salvo Randone. An international co-production between Italy and France, it is based on Robert Sheckley's 1953 short story "Seventh Victim". Taking place in the year 2079 in the aftermath of World War III, the film's focus is on a government-endorsed program known as "The Big Hunt", whereby contestants from around the world act as "hunters" and "victims" in two-person battles to the death as a means of avoiding mass warfare. The plot follows veteran Big Hunt contestants Caroline Meredith (Andress) and Marcello Poletti (Mastroianni), who are respectively assigned the roles of hunter and victim for one such confrontation, which is complicated by their budding romance. Like Petri's other films, The 10th Victim is a work of socio-political satire, while also combining science fiction themes with conventions of the commedia all'italiana genre.[6]I did see the Ozploitation version of this story, in Turkey Shoot. I don't recommend it. Trashy but not trashy fun. I think the Edgar Wright directed The Running Man remake opens this weekend. Octopussy had a three-minute human safari sequence, and it was the worst part of the movie. So it's something that just seems to grip people's minds. But I don't remember hearing about any cases where this actually happened, though. And, on a practical level: I think someone entering a war zone with a sniper rifle would be fired upon themselves, and I wonder exactly which of the wealthy, pampered, likely old people were willing to risk that. I'm also a little wary of Italian prosecutors making action/horror movie claims. In read the terrific true-crime book by Douglas Preston, The Monster of Florence, the so-called "Jack the Ripper of Italy," operating there in the 80s and 90s. In my review, I relayed that there are more dangers there than serial killers:
Italy's a lovely place, but take this advice: Never be accused of committing a serious crime there. I'm not saying don't commit a serious crime; chances are, you'd get away with it. I'm saying don't be accused of committing a serious crime, especially if you're innocent, because that's when the Italian justice system seems to go into Berserker Mode to convict you. The clownshow of Italian justice is jaw-slackening stuff. Add into that the medieval -- if that -- banditry of the Sardinian mountain clans and a local populace absolutely terrified of an audacious murderer that simply cannot be found, and the panics and paranoias that grip the area and DAs and head detectives who rely on the theories of shrieky, conspiratorial bloggers, pushing bizarre theories about aristocrats and doctors in Satanic Cults trading in female sexual organs (because the most psychic energy is contained in sexual organs from people killed at the point of orgasm, you know.... didn't you know that? I thought everyone knew that). I'm only halfway through and I haven't even gotten to the good stuff yet. (The authors may or may not be threatened to be jailed unless they leave Italy and/or actually thrown in jail for daring to report on this insanity... by the DA pushing the Satanic Sex Cult Genital Trafficking theory of the case.)I have no information about Milan's prosecutors but having read about Florence's, I'm skeptical. The prosecutor pushing the "doctors and lawyers are the real serial killers" line got embarrassed that his Interesting Theories were never proven, and was embarrassed more when it turned out some of his sources and accusers were homeless drunks. How they knew the skinny on Italy's aristocrats and their secret Satanic sex parties, I don't know. He then repackagef his Satanic Sex Orgy theories of murder by... prosecuting Amanda Knox under a similar sort of "satanic sex orgy gone wrong" murder theory. The actual killer in that case turned out to be an African immigrant and drifter and noted "girl-botherer" -- sex pest -- with a criminal history of breaking into people's homes for petty theft and then taking a poop there. Which is exactly what happened in the Meredith Kercher murder, except she came home while he was burgling the place. His DNA and bloody handprints were found everywhere. A very likely suspect with a ton of evidence against him... but no razzle-dazzle, you know? No va-va-voom. The DA was too invested in his "Satanic Sex Orgy" theory so he just claimed that the sex-pest immigrant burglar had, for some reason, been recruited into the orgy murder scenario by Amanda Knox. So that's why I'm very skeptical. It just doesn't seem very likely to me. I'll ask Colonel Kurt Schlichter if he remembers any intel about Human Hunts when he was serving over in Kosovo but I imagine he already would have written a couple of thriller books about it if he had.
U.S. Senator John FettermanThat's so Lumpy Jack.
@SenFettermanPA
Statement from Sen. Fetterman's Spokesperson: "During an early morning walk, Senator Fetterman sustained a fall near his home in Braddock. Out of an abundance of caution, he was transported to a hospital in Pittsburgh. Upon evaluation, it was established he had a ventricular fibrillation flare-up that led to Senator Fetterman feeling light-headed, falling to the ground and hitting his face with minor injuries. Senator Fetterman had this to say: 'If you thought my face looked bad before, wait until you see it now!'
He is doing well and receiving routine observation at the hospital. He has opted to stay so doctors can fine-tune his medication regimen. Senator Fetterman is grateful for the EMTs, doctors, and nurses who are providing his care."The "LOVE IS LOVE" brigades continue thirsting for a man's death:

I think it's naivete. Here's why: You have to believe in levels of depravity in people that have never before seen in history. (Not this particular kind of depravity.)
Buuuuuut... you also have to put it out of your mind that sometimes writers and "journalists" lie for gain.
I don't know how you do the former, and then ignore the latter.
People lie. People are crazy. Believing something just because someone you never heard of said something and made some claims is naive about the sport of lying, which so many enjoy and make a profit at.
If there's evidence, sure, I'll look at it and re-examine. But "some guy said so and passed a report on to a mayor" is not evidence.

Someone on youtube was commenting that ignoring Fuentes is like ignoring the Bavarian corporal in 1938.

As far as I can see, no one ever described a Fuentes speech as being "turned inside out like a glove".
Analogies are only as useful as they are.
You can put various people into that proposition: "Ignoring X is like ignoring the Viennese Corporal" (he wished he'd been a Bavarian!)
This is likely also from people who have a suspect use of the word "like". Yes, "ignoring" one politico is *inherently* "like" ignoring another. In that a political figure is ignored.
There are so many people who use a single overlap as "like".

If I recall how the story goes, it was suppose to be cancelled after season 4. The final episode that was shown at the end of season 5, was shot in season 4, as B5 was getting cancelled. Then, it wasn't cancelled and the mad scramble to get a final season in began. Hence the not very good season 5.

Ace I think you are seriously underestimating the depravity of humans throughout history. From barbarians pouring molten gold down the throats of Roman ambassadors and returning them to rome because they were duplicitous to ancient Greeks designing and building the brazen bull to roast alive their enemies while they had parties listening to the screams of their victims while they were being roasted alive and the Vikings and their wing torture rituals that kept victims alive for days have me thinking that humans are capable of almost anything to fulfill their most sick desires.

I spent quite a bit of time in Sarajevo in 2021, and the locals would frequently point out where the snipers were stationed, and some of the long outdoor staircases where people were frequently shot along "sniper alley."
Also, throughout the city, on the sidewalk were "Sarajevo Roses"

I don't question the depravity, I question the practicality of it.
Sarajevo was under siege, and that means there were lines all around the city, including the backfield to prevent infiltrators from getting in. So the 'tourists' would have to negotiate a way through all that, then literally have a sniper position in the front lines, and everyone on their own side would be fine about it, because if they don't know who is there, THEY will shot them.

Sniper - chic has been too big a thing for a while now, even getting into video games. And to balance Ace's comment on the risks, shooting at long range at civilians is about as safe as it can get with NATO ruling the air at the time. And the risk is part of the thrill I'd expect.
I've never admired the trained snipers that pot 50 enlisted men going to the bathroom when a machine gun section might kill a few battalions if they catch them in the open without cover.

We do know that serial killers stalk and "hunt" people, in a way. But they're rare and therefore they have to be solo operators. Every once in a blue moon two psychopaths get together and you have a duo.
But dozens of wealthy europeans all seeking out this kind of "fun" and creating a market for human hunt guides?
Skeptical! If there really wee so many people with this kink, we'd've already seen such things in the past. But we haven't seen that, so there probably just aren't enough people who crave hunting humans to create a cottage industry servicing that craving.

I guess the Manson family, kind of, but that was, what was his name, "Tex" and two accomplices. And they didn't find each other FOR murder, they found each other because it was some kind of free love hippie commune. The murder came after that.

The tourists would presumably have escorts and would have friendly uniforms once everyone is paid off. Then all you would need is an observation / sniper post where real snipers could set up a shot and swap in the tourist to pull the trigger.

I don't totally agree with that. But we can get closer to that model in our thinking by dispelling "possibility" as that which is not decidedly impossible.
Thus a combination of that rule and the "Simulation Hypothesis" would be we are "in a simulation" only if such thing is fully feasible, and if we are not in one, it would go toward the infeasibility of sentient beings "in a simulation".
None of the factors we know to any degree of specifiability.

This sounds to me like a dark fantasy that this guy wants to be true.
I remember reading about Eurotrash going on sniper holidays in Beirut during the Civil War there. I read newspaper articles that hinted about it in the 80s.
Granted, it was only hints and rumors, but these sort of stories go back DECADES and in multiple conflicts. True or not, it wouldn't surprise me.

That's a lot of work during active combat by threadbare Serbian troops.
That's also a lot of payoffs and people who have to be repeatedly paid off and would face no penalty for diming you out.
Like maybe drill you, and the tourists and take their stuff. Or hold them hostage for a ransom.

King's movies really show his disdain for religion. It's boring and preachy. That's why asian films are better.
I think people mentioned 'The Audition' and 'Ichi the Killer' which were cool movies from Japan. On Tubi, I think. I really liked 'Signal 100' too.

In reality, due to me being sort of near a real serial killer in college, I will not read or watch anything about them. I was easy pickin's for him, but somehow I missed meeting the demon.

There is one aspect of the film that merits viewing: A side character who also one of the "hunters' played by a very sexy Italian actress.

And certainly not in a war zone with very limited access. The road network is really constrained so lots of checkpoints and people to wonder who the tourists are.

They'd be a lot less threadbare after they got the payoff and vanished out of the army.
There were stories in Ukraine that the UKR black market sold western tanks to Russia, and just about everything else worldwide routinely. Doing things off the books is managed all the time.
I'm no idea if its true, but lots of shady operators exist and operate in war zones.

Pilfering supplies and arms trading are very different from bringing in outsiders, managing to get them through the rear area security and then have a nice, cozy sniper nest waiting for them to take shots (and maybe draw return fire on the position) and then get out again.
If these people are rich enough to pay off a bunch of people, they are rich enough to pay a hefty ransom, which is what would happen. I mean, if we're talking about depravity, it cuts both ways. Why would the guys running a murder tourism gig keep their word?

God exists if an entity has the "power of God" (where sentience being the power of "self-determination" which is arguably a "power"). God is only possible if and only if that entity ("He") is.
How much power God then has, only he has the observational platform to see. Although it is a comprehensible strategy to bound the actual by the probable and the probable by the actual, we are speaking of filling in for our ignorance, however "high-percentage" it arguably is. And thus we cannot claim to know absolutely, where as an observer with all power--given "knowledge", i.e. the accumulation of all knowable aspects and integration--as a form of power.

Atlas Shrugged is about the competent going on strike against their collectivist society and opting out through the eyes of a 'scab' trying to preserve her railroad.
while I didn't read the Fountainhead, I'd add that I think they're in different genres. I think the Fountainhead is a semi-plausible drama about one man trusting himself and guarding his own individuality, and rejecting the demands for comformity by committee, and Atlas Shrugged is a sci-fi type of story about men who trusts themselves over the collective, so they all abandon the collective world and set up their own commune of individualists in colorado.
The world outside collapses because Atlas -- the giant holding up the heavens -- shrugged off his burden.

You may recall that he used his Super Science to cut in on all radio broadcasts, then proceeded to Regurgitate a Rand Rant for page after page after page.
In the book, listeners stayed glued to the radio.
In real life, people would say "Isn't this asshole ever going to shut the fuck up?" and turn the radio off.
Me, I started skipping pages. Five pages. Ten pages. Twenty pages. As I recall the damned thing is like 75 pages long, and every bit of it is regurgitating the same philosophical points as the rest of the book.
As someone said above, she needed a competent editor.

Likely Movie: The Ipcress File (1965)
Based on your description, the film that best matches is The Ipcress File, a British spy thriller directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Michael Caine as the sharp-witted, working-class secret agent Harry Palmer. It's from 1965 (late '60s), fits the era perfectly, and was a staple of late-night TV broadcasts in the '70s and '80s, including around 1983 when you saw it. The plot revolves around Cold War espionage, government betrayal, and psychological manipulation—elements that would have felt fresh and intriguing at the time, especially with its gritty, realistic tone contrasting flashier Bond films.
Quick Plot Summary (Spoiler-Light) The Setup and Amnesia Element: Palmer is a clever, street-smart agent in his 30s, reassigned to a low-key intelligence unit after bending rules in his previous job. He's well-dressed in a nondescript suit, speaks with dry, educated sarcasm (but no posh accent), and is deeply cynical about authority. Early on, while heading to a routine assignment, he's kidnapped and subjected to intense sensory

"The Most Dangerous Game" from 193something and the short story it came from are probably the oldest hunt humans for fun fiction.
The movie is currently streaming on Criterion.
"The Pest" is a 90s comedy based on the same idea.
I really enjoy The Pest. A lot of people just hate it.

The “tell” that the story was fake was when, to “prove” that it happened, Harry Reid sued the equipment manufacturer for damages. It went to trial and the manufacturers legal team said “well can you produce the equipment so we can tell how it failed?”
And Reid said oops so sorry I forgot and threw it away. And that was the end of that.

Entertainment was once my gold standard for entertainment news. The finally jumped the shark for me when their movie reviews by Owen and Lisa went woke (she gave Juno an A- because Juno didn't abort her baby!), and then having Stephen King as a guest columnist (with a portrait of him looking like a demented The Grinch in really harsh ominous lighting). He was insufferable in those columns. I hate read them.

I remember an SF story with a similar start. Dude comes to a psychiatrist with his story starting there. He was near a lumberjack camp and worked there for a while, then one day an accident happens and he finds he can shape change. He thinks he was 'dropped off' by aliens and they form a theory that if they find his correct form it will break the amnesia. They experiment for a while with no results - aside from shape changing working - finally the psychiatrist goes to the area trying to figure out why he was dropped in that place particularly. He gets a flash and tells him to change form to a woman, and it works. They dropped him in an area where he would run into men first.

To be fair to Bev Hillbillies Ellie had tons of animals of all sorts from the very first episodes, even cats and such. Somebody must have owed favors to the animal handler trade in CA at the time. They were ozark type animals at first, then more oddball ones as they moved in to the mansion.

Just-Completed Chinese Bridge Collapses, Tom Friedman Hardest Hit
Plus: The Tenth Annivesary of the Savage Bataclan Attack in Paris
I always hate linking stuff that shows China in a good light in the Cafe. If there's a Chinese foot-bridge connecting two mountains, I'll link it, but say something like "I don't like linking China, but they do some impressive civil engineering." Partly to justify linking anything that might seem pro-China, and partly because I'm wistful about the days of great American civil engineering.
The last time I said that, a few commenters said: No they don't. Alluding to the tendency for these impressive structures to sometimes collapse even more impressively. (I did also allude to that when I linked a glass alpine roller coaster going down a mountain's side, saying that China's lack of concern for human life allows them to build some fun-but-lethal amusement rides.) Anyway, my mistake on ever saying China did some impressive civil engineering.A bridge has collapsed after just one month of being open to the public.
A massive bridge at a hydropower station in southwest China collapsed Tuesday, sending concrete and steel plunging into a river just months after it opened, according to Chinese state media. Reuters reported that an official from Barkam County confirmed the collapse to the Chinese state-run Global Times, saying no casualties had been reported.Sure. Sure. Sure sure sure. Suuuuuuuure. Sure sure sure sure sure sure sure. S U R E There are no casualties. However, dozens of engineers, minor officials. and witnesses have been Reported Missing. No but seriously, the bridge began collapsing over a period of hours, so they did have time to divert traffic. Though they don't say they "stopped" traffic, only that they imposed "temporary traffic controls."
Fox says "Reuters contributed to this report." I think I see Reuters' influence in vouching for the speedy, decisive action by the wonderful Red China government.
The report added that cracks were detected a day earlier on the bridge's road surface and slope, prompting authorities to impose temporary traffic controls. Footage of the collapse, shared widely on Chinese social media, showed the Hongqi Bridge in Sichuan Province buckling before falling into the river below, kicking up a massive cloud of dust. ... Local transportation and public security bureaus said the right-bank slope of the bridge showed signs of deformation Monday afternoon, just hours before the collapse. Authorities quickly shut down the structure to all traffic and issued a public notice warning of potential safety risks.
I think Tibet would disagree about the importance of being connected to Red China.
... According to Times Now, the Hongqi Bridge was located in Sichuan Province's mountainous Maerkang area and completed earlier this year as part of the G317 national highway--an important route connecting central China to Tibet.
The 758-meter-long, cantilevered two-lane beam bridge stood roughly 625 meters above the gorge floor, with piers reaching up to 172 meters in height. It was built by the state-backed Sichuan Road & Bridge Group as part of efforts to expand access to the Tibetan Plateau.

10 years after Bataclan massacre, Paris is still scarred by Islamic State attacks PARIS (AP) -- Sophie Dias fought tears outside the Stade de France on Thursday as she described her "void that never closes" since her father became the first person killed in France's deadliest peacetime attack -- a night of terrorism a decade ago that still scars Paris and shapes the country. The coordinated assaults on Nov. 13, 2015 turned the French capital into a theater of blood and calamity: gunfire on café terraces, explosions at a stadium, a massacre at the Bataclan concert hall. Many in France and abroad have described the attacks as the country's 9/11. The attacks killed 132 people, including two survivors who later died by suicide, and hundreds more were wounded. The night hardened France's security reflexes while deepening a sense of solidarity that has endured a decade later -- with many families now measuring time as "before" and "after." Dias' father, Manuel, died when the first bomber detonated outside the Stade de France. Speaking at the stadium gate where he was killed, she said the absence he left "weighs every morning and every evening, for 10 years." "We are told to turn the page," she said. "But the absence is immense, the shock is intact and the incomprehension remains. I'd like to know why, I'd like to understand. I'd like these attacks to stop."

@Gavin_McInnes Ten years ago today, jihadists murdered 130 Parisians in a savage and animalistic attempt to provoke a Holy War. They started by literally eviscerating the hipsters who adore them.

The Reaping Phase
@AceofSpadesHQ
En route home in an Uber driven by a cultural enricher ten years ago, I was told that the question I should be asking about the slaughter in the Bataclan theater is *why* they did it, that is, I should be writing about their grievances and their justification for mass slaughter. this is while the bodies were still being counted. there is no slaughter by Islamists that is not grist for immediate pro-Islamist propaganda. I would describe this guy's comportment, as radio reports about the mass slaughter were coming over the radio, as excited like a kid on Christmas morning he was beaming and vibrating. and let me emphazise I, and my two companions, were absolute strangers to him. He felt perfectly comfortable and indeed proud to say that the real story of the mass slaughter was the Muslim grievances which justified it. Lord knows what he says in private.

The problem is that they didn't built this bridge in, like, the Rocky Mountain Range of central Colorado where the mountains are Precambrian gneiss and granite. They built the bridge in western China.
The engineers did their job, which was a stupid job, ordered by stupid people. What are you going to do against a Communist government? Tell the truth?

Lucius Fabricius, iirc.
There was a legend i heard that he was offered a bonus when the bridge contract was handed out that if the bridge lasted for X number of years (20, I think?) He would earn a bonus.
Well. I wonder if it actually got paid out as it would have been hitting 20 years about the time of Civil Wars...

___________________________________
There is a great video on YouTube of a Billionaire investor (I think from the US) who went to China to finalize a project and no one tried to bribe him or do last minute changes to the contract, or even extortion. He said that right away he became wary. He couldn't figure out what they were up to. So, he held off on signing the contract. Days later, after reviewing the contract, he found subtle changes they had made without authorization.
He, also, talked about the Vaults. China will take foreigners down into the Vaults and show them a safety deposit box with a gold plaque engraved with their name, and inside are various "treasures" that you get if you comply with their requests. I often wondered how many US congressmen have such boxes.

1. China is building a lot of bridges. They are also cutting a lot of corners. They might even expect some of them to fail. Their goal is to build quick and cheap.
2. Think of it like our own transcontinental rail project.
3. The real fiasco is that they are building this route in order to digest and destroy Tibet. They want transportation to inundate it with Han.
4. All that said, It looks like it failed because of incompetence and bad engineering.

There was an enormous amount of attention to detail even using dental picks to give the spillway purchase to competent 'bedrock'. I note that it appears there still is some migration of water from the lake to the seams of the spillway track. Kiewit is still there with some trailers equipment 24/7. It's an impressive structure and certainly much improved over the original that lasted 50 years but I betcha they didn't plan on leaks.

Grievances? What grievances? I wipe my ass with their grievances.
The only way the West will survive is if we accept and understand that islam is not compatible. They have found a weakness in our system and they are exploiting it. To survive, we must put aside our notions of equality and freedom and thus ban islam, their books, their flags, their buildings, and their people from our land. The entire West.
Then we must push them back and take the Christian resources they have stolen in the M. E. including the oil they are using to get rich and spread their slavery.

Jesse had talked about how security asked his girlfriend, Tuesday Cross, if she was Arab, & when she told him she was Mexican they were like "oh never mind" (sidenote look up about the beautiful way Jesse fought for Tuesday after she fell in to a diabetic coma, & doctors wanted to pull the plug on her. He's shown such beautiful love taking care of her and trying to get her to return to normal, although she's now so handicapped)
He pointed out how backstage doors were propped open, which is a huge no-no for sound complaints at this place.
But most importantly he said how security in front of the stage completely disappeared before the attack started.
The owner said he was a racist & conspiracy theorist for this. Until the French enquiry where all the horrible details emerged. And in those details was a picture of the band playing before the attack, no security in front of the stage.
The owner who only hired Moroccan immigrants, smeared him because he knew he was culpable.

No, that's the communism. China used to have an honor-based culture, and Taiwan still does. Pride in craftsmanship, pride in family.
Mao killed all that. Now it's just "get mine, screw you." No Confucian notion of excellence and harmony, just get what you can.
This is why I question China's military capability. Yes, I've got a book that you all should read, but near the end I note that the combination of China's traditional anti-military culture, the Imperial imperative to save face and cover up shortfalls is now combined with communism's amoral pursuit of the Party line and rampant corruption that would make the Mandarins blush.

Traditional China had serious engineering chops. They invented gunpowder (though didn't know what to do with it) and their cities were amazing. Chinese siege warfare was something else.
But communism took the idea of low bidder to new depths. The Party believes in nothing but itself and the personal enrichment of its members. Even the Soviets could do quality control on T-34s and stuff. I don't think the ChiComs have any notion of what that even in.

The Chinese do not have any ethical considerations of the value of the individual. Without the Creator God, they are all in it for themselves. Autonomy, certainly, so they can do as they please. It is difficult for us to understand that mindset, because we have the Judeo-Christian framework that values each person as a child of God.
I think that accounts for the misery of life in China from time immemorial.

Ace, I have to thank you for my paying attention to that crud on the bottom of slime ooze, Fuentes. I saw really horrible stuff about him today. Worse than I thought. I was arguing with someone who turned it into him not liking Fuentes but, somehow, calling me a neo-con who wants war. Um, no. I specifically called on the division of conservatives over this matter he, Carlson and Cookie Candace are spewing.
I ripped a few huge farhts in his direction and, in turn, digging up some stuff on Fuentes. Not only anti-semitic but he compared the deaths of Jews, the numbers, to baking cookies and using basic math. With a sneer on his ugly face.
I did my part as I do see this division and I am not one to turn away from a fight, altho I try to avoid it and peace, man. Blows kisses!

Current China is not historical China.
Traditional Chinese culture values the collective and the family rather than the individual, but compared to the West there was a path for people of any class to pass the Imperial Examinations and become part of the elite.

This will end up getting willowed, but I agree with you completely. The over-riding problem with much of Asian culture is the lack of Judeo-Christian ethics. Cambodia under Pol Pot is more damning than anything Lenin or Stalin dreamed of. More than 20 percent of that country was murdered or starved in a few short years because there was no cultural limitation to what one could do and still be considered "normal". Somehow a country that had about 8 million people killed/starved around 2 million of its population.

The Chinese government subverted the efforts of Catholics in China. They now have the "Patriotic Catholic Church" which is a mouthpiece for the commies, and the True Church is entirely underground and persecuted like nobody's business.

2. However, because the government has a monopoly on information, the architects of the system get to laud the shoddier quality produced as "proof the system works" (regardless of whether it does or not).
3. While shoddy quality exists in a Free Market, the failure to produce the quality product of people's demand is not as likely to be systemic. And the challenge is to another part of the market to provide a higher quality good that actually is the most worthy to trade cash for.
Conclusion: Marxism is much more likely to produce a dearth of quality than Free economies. Especially since the body responsible for the product does not have an equal monopoly on the information that can be disseminated.
Musk might possibly try to suppress scandals about Tesla quality on X, but he does not "Own the means of production" for all information. A Marxian system does by design.

Someone on youtube was commenting that ignoring Fuentes is like ignoring the Bavarian corporal in 1938. I told that one it's more like 1931. We don't want to punch out Fuentes-curious young men (yet).
My problem with Fuentes is like my problem with that corporal. He's an opportunist. There are real problems in the market right now and people, including people related to commenters here, are getting fucked.
Does Fuentes have the right solutions? Hell no. The corporal didn't either.
But someone's got to provide solutions or they're going to go to the only person who even acts like he cares enough.

His mouth is a bottomless pit of evil from the little I have heard from him and don't care to hear again.

Re: Bataclan
One security video clip that really stuck with me is when two women hid behind a planter just outside a cafe and one of the savages walked up with his Kalashnikov, bent over the planter and pointed the rifle at them point blank. But the Kalash was jammed and wouldn't fire. When the women realized it, they stood up and ran down the street while he struggled with the bolt, trying to clear the stoppage.
I don't know which was more terrifying to watch, a goat-fucking savage on a rampage, or the Hand of God coming down and giving the most reliable human-made assault rifle in the world a good choking to save the two women.

As far as I can see, no one ever described a Fuentes speech as being "turned inside out like a glove".
Analogies are only as useful as they are.
You can put various people into that proposition: Ignoring X is like ignoring the Viennese Corporal (he wished he'd been a Bavarian!)
This is likely also from people who have a suspect use of the word "like". Yes, "ignoring" one politico is *inherently* "like" ignoring another. In that a political figure is ignored.
There are so many people who use a single overlap as "like".

Communist Spy Asset and Adulterer Eric Swalwell Referred to the DOJ for Mortgage Fraud
Imma be honest with y'all, I think this is the weakest such referral yet.
Unless he's did what "Big Tish" James and claimed multiple properties to be his primary residence in applying for reduced mortgage rates, I think he skates. The basic claim here is that he said his DC residence was his "primary" residence and got a $1.2 million mortgage. The purported inconsistency is that a California representative is supposed to be primarily domiciled in California. But he's claiming his DC mansion is his primary residence, so he's not actually a California resident! And if he's telling the truth about being primarily domiciled in DC, he can't be a Representative from California! Uhhhh... I mean, kind of? I don't think it will hold up. Again, not unless he is claiming both a California home as his primary residence for mortgage purposes along with his DC house. In that case, there's a clear inconsistency between the representations he's making to banks. But... yeah I don't know if maintaining a residence in California while claiming primary residence in DC is "fraud." Maybe his alleged "constituents" in California have reason to not vote for him, given that he legally considers himself a DC resident, but... I don't think he's guilty of criminal fraud based on only this. Sort of like Donald Trump's "fraud" on Deutsche Bank for giving his collateral properties a supposed over-evaluation is really Deutsche Bank's bitch to pitch, not Soros DA Alvin Bragg's. But then, the left thought that was a perfectly reasonable prosecution, sooooo... NY Post:Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) was hit with a federal criminal referral for alleged mortgage and tax fraud related to his purchase of a $1.2 million home in Washington, DC, that he claimed as a primary residence, The Post has confirmed. Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte in a Wednesday letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi requested an investigation of Swalwell based on allegedly false and misleading statements he made about the purchase, NBC News first reported. The California Democrat was able to secure millions of dollars' worth of loans and refinancing based on the primary residence declaration in DC, a source familiar with the referral said. The designation could constitute mortgage fraud, insurance fraud and state and local tax fraud, among other charges, the source noted. In addition to the Department of Justice criminal referral, FHFA's inspector general is probing the alleged mortgage fraud. "As the most vocal critic of Donald Trump over the last decade and as the only person who still has a surviving lawsuit against him, the only thing I am surprised about is that it took him this long to come after me," Swalwell responded in a statement.Yeah they're all guilty. Saying you're just as innocent as they are does you no good. Go do anal with a Chicom spook grooming you for intelligence and influence, Fartwell. What an asshole.
"Like James Comey and John Bolton, Adam Schiff and Lisa Cook, Letitia James and the dozens more to come -- I refuse to live in fear in what was once the freest country in the world," added the California congressman, who is now the fourth Democratic official to be targeted for mortgage fraud by the Trump administration.

You get one primary residence for mortgage purposes. Not 2, or 3, or 5. And claiming something as a primary residence means you get a lower interest rate. It can mean saving thousands per year, which is why these people do it.
They do this knowingly, and it is a corrupt practice. And it has gone on for decades.

So there's this, as rickb223 pointed out last thread:
Swalwell not only committed mortgage fraud — he deemed himself INELIGIBLE to be a member of Congress, as he declared his DC residence his primary residence.
No public record searches show a home owned or leased by Rep. Swalwell in California.
Members of Congress are required under Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution to be “inhabitants” of the state they represent at the time of their election.
Rep. Swalwell was not and IS not an inhabitant of California, it seems.

You are always advised to consult an attorney if you have issues over a legal matter. Regarding the sale of your last house, you're welcome to consult an attorney. Its also possible that:
* The buyer doesn't find it objections
* The buyer signed a closing acknowledgement and release form at closing that provides some sort of indemnity
* Your nondisclosure could be deemed immaterial and/or un-intentional.

But Texas has the luxury of letting DC do its foreign policy and trade policy. Texans don't need a legislature running throughout every year.
DC does, like it or not. So whoever is representing Odessa to DC might actually need to spend most his/her time over there.
If it's a legal fiction that the Odessa rep has its "home" among the cows and high school football stadium, when it's actually living around Capitol Hill or Georgetown most of the time; then it holds true for that flatulent gasbag from California too.

I'm not seeing where that is required. There's a requirement that a representative be an "inhabitant" of the state they represent at the time of election. But "inhabitant" seems to be something less than "primary domicile."
I'll bet 100s of representatives claim their DC homes are "primary" for mortgage purposes.

Yes, he has. September 22, 2025
Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Order to designate Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
The Order notes that Antifa is a militarist, anarchist enterprise that calls for the overthrow of the U.S. government, law enforcement authorities, and our system of law—using illegal means, including violence and terrorism, to accomplish these goals.
The Order directs the Federal government to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle all illegal operations conducted by Antifa ...etc

Full disclosure is always advised. One Broker I know asserted that if one spilled a cup of water on a kitchen counter, it was better to disclose that than risk later being accused of non-disclosure. I used the phrase "immaterial" in my previous post because the nicked tile you described was in plain sight and noticeable not only at showing but also through-out the inspection process. If it was never brought to your attention throughout the showing and inspection process, it likely was considered unimportant to the buyer.

For 9 months, most of everything has been of a negative nature...which it needed to be - deportations needed to happen, funds and feds needed to be cut, the military and foreign countries/companies needed to be put back in line...
But now I think everyone needs a little boost. And it doesn't need to be monetary. It just needs to stop the relentless focus on the negative and use the season to emphasize the positive. Melania might be perfect here...
I just think it will go a long way with everyone. Like this is a "what makes America" great as we enter next year's celebrations.
A spotlight on a small town, a heroic act, a 95 year volunteer, a beautiful holiday site, etc...Have people nominate what makes America great for social media and the press secretary to have a new story for the day.

Article I, Section 2 specifies three requirements: a person must be at least 25 years old, have been
a U.S. citizen for seven years, and, at the time of the election, be an “Inhabitant of that State in
which he shall be chosen.”
This language, known as the Inhabitant Clause, is the only residency requirement imposed by the Constitution.
The key detail is that a representative must live in the state they represent, not necessarily the specific congressional district. The framers chose the word “inhabitant” over “resident” to accommodate individuals who might be away from home for extended periods. As long as a candidate resides within the state’s boundaries at the time of the election, they have met the constitutional standard for residency, even if their home is located miles outside their district’s lines.

Not that I see...everyone here wanted it to end from top to bottom. VA was losing so much money, and some won't come back (like the defense contractor folks furloughed between Oct 27 and Nov 1). Gov is 100% backing Kaine, and she won in a landslide, so that's keeping things quiet, even if there are malcontents.

These practices, in conjunction with aggressive sales tactics, enabled Crazy Eddie to significantly undercut competitors and grow rapidly. During the process of going public, Crazy Eddie continued to engage in fraud, over-reporting profits, inflating inventory and duping auditors. Unable to sustain his fraudulent business practices, co-founder Eddie Antar cashed in millions of dollars' worth of stock and resigned from the company in December 1986. "

Doctorin' the POTUS: The BBC Aired More Doctored Video of Trump
The BBC didn't just run heavily-doctored video of Trump seeming to urge his supporters to go to the Capitol and riot on the premiere BBC program (or 'programme') Panorama.
They ran similar doctored footage on BBC Newsnight. That means more editors and "journalists" saw the footage and decided to lie. In addition, it is now revealed that they were warned about the deceptive nature of the edit, and decided they were fine with it.
The BBC doctored footage of a Donald Trump speech a second time and ignored concerns that were raised about it, The Telegraph can reveal. Spliced footage of the speech, which aired in an episode of Newsnight in 2022, made it appear that Mr Trump was encouraging his supporters to riot. The edit was similar to a version aired in a Panorama documentary that was broadcast last year. ... A former White House chief of staff criticised the BBC on air for "splicing" the footage, but his concerns were ignored by Newsnight presenter Kirsty Wark. A whistleblower told The Telegraph that a further discussion the following day was also shut down. The revelation risks plunging the corporation further into crisis, after the Panorama edit was disclosed in an internal dossier on bias that was leaked to The Telegraph. It is also likely to raise fresh questions about the future of Jonathan Munro, Ms Turness's deputy, who has been put in charge of the BBC's overall news operation since her departure. At the time of the broadcast, Mr Munro was interim director of news and current affairs with ultimate responsibility for Newsnight. ... BBC insiders have sought to portray the bias allegations as part of a Right-wing coup against its news operation, suggesting that individual errors were not evidence of a systemic problem. However, the separately doctored Newsnight footage - which was disclosed to The Telegraph by a separate whistleblower who had worked on the programme - suggests issues are more ingrained in the corporation than its defenders claim. Given that the Newsnight footage was broadcast more than two years before Panorama doctored the same speech, and concerns were raised at the time, it also risks triggering new scrutiny of the claim that Panorama's edits were an innocent mistake. ... There is no cross-fade or similar device in the Newsnight footage to suggest that the speech has been cut together. On Newsnight, after the footage was played, Ms Wark interviewed Mick Mulvaney, who was previously acting White House chief of staff for Mr Trump. He resigned from the administration following the storming of the Capitol. ... Mr Mulvaney continued: "Your video actually spliced together the presentation. He said: 'We're gonna go down and we're gonna cheer on our senators and our house members' and then it actually goes on to say 'And some of them we might not be able to' and that line about 'and we fight and fight like hell' is actually later in the speech yet your video makes it look like those two things came together. "That's the type of messaging here that so many people in my country find frustrating is that it's hard to actually get the facts. If we're going to have a debate about what this was and prevent it from happening again, I think part of that is to make sure we're straightforward in our presentation of what actually happened." ... A whistleblower claimed that concerns about the footage were subsequently raised during an editorial meeting the following morning, but were dismissed. ... "One producer said, 'How did that go out'? 'Why did that happen?' And the editorial editor, not the VT [video tape] editor, kind of brushed it off. And I thought that that was extraordinary, that something like that had gone out."
... An internal memo by Michael Prescott, who spent three years as an independent external adviser to the broadcaster's Editorial Guidelines and Standards Committee, said: "Examining the charge that Trump had incited protesters to storm Capitol Hill, it turned out that Panorama had spliced together two clips from separate parts of his speech. This created the impression that Trump said something he did not and, in doing so, materially misled viewers."
Not that you need Joe Rogan to tell you this is f***ed up, but he is telling you that. In case you didn't know.
Podcast host Joe Rogan called out the BBC on Wednesday over the scandal over the network's deceptively edited video of former President Donald Trump, saying it shows the "deep rot" in mainstream media. ... Rogan discussed the scandal multiple times this week, arguing on his podcast that it was "not journalism, but, like, full-on lying and propaganda. And it's kinda f--ing dangerous." "It seems like these people -- this is just my opinion -- felt justified for completely lying, because it would lead to an ultimate good. So they lost all journalistic integrity. And it is the BBC, which is like the height of journalistic integrity," Rogan said. "If that doesn't show the rot of mainstream, corporate-controlled media, then nothing does. Because that's pure rot," Rogan said. "At the top of the heap, if someone quoted a source, and it was the BBC, I'd think, 'OK, that's like The Washington Post or The New York Times.' It's a very official source, so I'd assume, 'This must be real.'"
Now, he said, things are different: "They turned it into activism, and they turned it into lying -- and they did it in front of everyone, where you could clearly just listen to the full speech and know he didn't say that. That's not how he said it at all."

I believe that chart represents the break-down of "private" donations. But the vast majority of BBC's funding is indeed from British subjects: the government imposes a "license fee" on everyone in the UK who has a television. It's billions of dollars a year. That license fee funds BBC. It also gets private donations, which I think is the chart you linked.

Well, Italian prosecutors have opened an investigation into some Italian citizens alleged to have participated in this. They've got evidence it indeed happened.

As I understand it, the UK nuclear arsenal is composed entirely of US Trident missiles, which require constant maintenance by the US to keep them operational.
Shut off the maintenance, and bust the UK down to the international power level of, say, Italy.

Probably a good idea to let those missiles decay to the point that they're no longer operational anyway so that the Muslim invaders won't have working nukes when they finally take over.

They completely whitewashed, actually ignored, Leticia James and her vow to make President Trump's life hell. They made her out to be a poor victim of OrangeManBad.

This should be called out for what it is: Trump doing what he always does, trying to take down any media that doesn’t kiss his wrinkly arse.
Succinctly capturing the message of that day with his own words in order to highlight what horrible person he is is fair game. Far better than the capitulating CBS or NYT.
I agree. That baying mob was heavily influenced to commit the crimes they did on Jan 6th. He incited political violence against the US government. We literally watched his speech to them live as it happened, he didn't hide his intentions. He wanted the result of the election overturned by any means. Who cares that his feelings were hurt?
Anyone who watched the whole speech could see the thinly veiled call for violence. They could of made the edit more obvious but they did not misrepresent what he said.

According to the Charles County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland, on November 7, James Bowman III, 40, was arrested for domestic-related assault after he allegedly punched a woman in the face and bit her hand.
The woman should have felt some measure of relief/safety knowing her alleged attacker was behind bars.
Instead, officials in the Blue State of Maryland released Bowman from jail with no bail requirement under the condition that he doesn’t abuse the woman he allegedly attacked again.
An hour later, according to officials, he then returned to the victim’s house and allegedly assaulted the woman again, this time while she was holding a baby.

Just saw this at Hot Gas. Back during that Bosnia mess in the '90s, there were rumors that wealthy elite paid for "sniper vacations", where they'd go in for the privilege of shooting civilians for sport. This was dismissed as just too crazy and sick to be true.

The man appeared outside the Newark office on Wednesday evening but was barred by security from entering with the bat, people said. However, when the man returned WITHOUT the bat, security officers allowed him to enter the building.
He then went to the floor where Ms. Habba’s office is and began yelling incoherently and smashing property, the people said. It is unclear whether he made specific threats against Ms. Habba.

Almost all restaurants are expensive now. Years of minimum wage laws, rent increases, insurance increases, food price increases, regulatory costs, and advertising budgets (for chains) has made eating out expensive. But customers seem willing to pay, so there's not a lot of price competition.

Fetterman fell to the ground after feeling light-headed, which was due to a ventricular fibrillation flare-up, the statement said. Ventricular fibrillation is a type of irregular heartbeat. Fetterman is remaining at the hospital for observation so doctors can "fine-tune" his medications."
